The Saguaro Astronomy Club of Phoenix and the Glendale Parks and Recreation
Department will host the 2006 SAC Fall Public Star Party Saturday October 28,
from 5:30 to 9:30 PM at Thunderbird Park. We will have a variety of telescopes
available for public viewing. We will be showing various astronomical objects
including the Moon, the Comet, and selected Deep Sky Wonders. Please join us
for a night under the stars!
Club members and others with telescopes, drive all the way in to the parking
area. Don't forget a stepstool for the little ones.
Sunset is at 5:40 PM. Come early. It is recommended to bring plenty of bottled
water to stay hydrated. The Moon will be waxing towards first quarter with 37%
illuminated. The main entrance to the Park is on 59th Avenue between Deer
Valley and Pinnacle Peak Rd. Go 1.5 mi. north of the 101 on 59th Avenue. Follow
the signs in the park to the event, which is free.
Free parking is available, and shuttles will bring participants to the
telescope observing area. Disabled-access restroom facilities are available.
A PDF flyer is available on the SAC website for you to print and distribute.
