This event will be held in conjunction with the Astronomy League in the lower parking lot just above the Tombaugh Education building, in the New Mexico Museum of Space History (NMMSH), in Alamogordo.
The event is free to the public. Everyone is welcome.
This exciting STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education activity is geared towards encouraging people of all ages to experience the night sky through telescopes.
