[Nov 20] 50 Things to See in the Sky: Launch Event!



Join us Wednesday, November 20th at 7 pm to celebrate the launch of 50 Things to See in the Sky by Sarah Baker

50 Things to See in the Sky is a hip and handy guide helps you learn the science behind blue skies, sun dogs, and the solar eclipse, and shows you how to observe nocturnal wonders such as lunar halos, Martian ice caps, and far-off galaxies. Fifty celestial phenomena come to life with expert tips from astrophysicist Sarah Barker and stylish illustrations by Maria Nilsson. Any explorer can become an adept observer with their guidance, and more ambitious stargazers will be able to discover more distant sights with the help of binoculars, a telescope, or a local astronomy group. With a glow-in-the-dark cover, 50 Things to See in the Sky is a perfect complement to your next camping expedition and a wonderful gift for anyone who marvels at what lies in our celestial sphere.

On November 20 at 7pm Rachel Karpf will be asking Sarah Baker some Q's and she'll be giving some A's. You can also ask your own Q's.

Sarah says, "Then I can sign your books! I'll even draw some very childish stars and planets if you like....."
