Please join us at the Collins Marsh Neustadter Nature Center, 20021 Cty JJ, Reedsville for a guided tour of our night sky by local astronomy enthusiast Al Kluczinske. Highlighting our tour will the the Perseid Meteor shower. Although we’ll have the sturgeon moon brightening our view a bit, we should be able to catch sight of some of the 50-100 meteors per hour streaking by. Maybe we’ll even spot a fireball! To learn more about the Perseids, check out NASA’s website here https://science.nasa.gov/solar-system/meteors-meteorites/perseids/
Feel free to come early and enjoy our pollinator gardens in the setting sun.
