March Friends Weekend: Stargazing 101
During March 16–18 the Arlington Planetarium will celebrate the night sky with a weekend that we call “Stargazing 101.”

Join us for
- a special presentation by Geoff Chester, Public Affairs Officer for the U.S. Naval Observatory, who will provide an introduction to observing the night sky
- full dome shows about light pollution, telescopes, and astronomy
- the chance to look through a variety of telescopes (weather permitting)
- a live concert by Dr. Jim Thorne and the MoonDiggers
