Enjoy the 5:35pm Tortugas game followed by a live astronomy class with MOAS Curator of Astronomy, Seth Mayo and other MOAS Planetarium staff members. With the ball field lights turned off, Mr. Mayo will point out the prominent spring stars and constellations with a bright green laser. Following the brief live tour of the night sky, there will be telescopes set up on the field for guests to peer through and get a close-up view of the celestial wonders up above!
