(Deming) – A Stars-N-Parks astronomy program will take place this Saturday at City of Rocks State Park.
City of Rocks is located between Deming and Silver City.
Attendees will observe highlights of the January sky, with Orion high in the east and Andromeda high in the west.
The event begins with a night sky tour, followed by views of deep sky objects through a high-powered telescope. Bill Nigg will be the presenter.
The program is viewed in a dark sky setting beginning at 6:40 p.m., and attendees should arrive at the park at sunset, which is at about 5:30 p.m., so they can become familiar with their surroundings before nightfall.
The program will end at about 8:10 p.m.
