Celebration of the Sun

Delaware

There’s no need to wait for nightfall to stargaze, you just need a little help from the experts. On two Saturday afternoons in July, this observatory hosts an event during which attendees can use special telescopes and eclipse glasses to observe the sun. The celestial gathering also includes activities such as rocket launches and sundial demonstrations to shed light on our closest star. This event only occurs July 18 and 25.
