Have you noticed the two bright objects that appear in the sky after sunset, both in the west? And that flashy red jewel in Leo? With your attention drawn to the coming spring skies,
can you identify what other constellations fill the sky?
No need to remain in the dark!
The Kika Silva Planetarium at Santa Fe College offers programs that can answer these questions and more.
To discover more about the night sky, visit your local library for books, magazines and more. The cosmos will be revealed.
So come down and look in, and then go out and look up.
