Space Rocks! Rock ‘n’ roll with us as we mark the end of Libraries Rock! – the 2018 Summer Reading Program – with a fun twist, because space rocks, too!
See lunar and meteorite sample disks on loan from NASA’s Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center, explore the spectacular night sky in a mobile planetarium, learn how to build-your-own spacesuit and an Alka Seltzer rocket with everyone’s favorite Aunty Mimi! Explore mysterious black holes and the inside of “planets,” make a pocket solar system, get hands-on experience with infrared cameras, and view the sun through a solar telescope! Then, indulge in shave ice and other out-of this-world delights!
This free, family-friendly event is open to the public and presented in collaboration with: CFH Telescope; SMA Observatory; West Hawaii Astronomy Club; W.M. Keck Observatory; Gemini Observatory; and the Institute for Astronomy at UH.
