Museum of Space History Star Party

The New Mexico Museum of Space History in Alamogordo holds free public star parties on Saturday evenings several times a year, mostly in spring and fall. Each one starts with a constellation show in the museum's New Horizons Dome Theater and Planetarium, then moves outside to the outdoor observatory in the upper parking lot, where members of the museum's Astronomy League share their telescopes and show live views on a big screen. If the weather is poor, the program stays indoors.

The dates are posted on the museum's events page.
