Fire in the Sky: Watch the Perseids With Us!

The annual Perseid meteor shower will once again be visible from CT, with peak viewing this year between Aug. 15 and 17.

Bill Herbst, a retired astronomy professor and Killingworth resident, will discuss the phenomena of meteors and meteorites in non-technical language accessible to precocious 4th graders and anyone older.

The talk will be followed, weather permitting, by an observing session at Deer Lake led by the Shoreline Astronomical Society. All are welcome. Admission is free.

Please register on the library calendar for the presentation, but feel free to drop in for the observing session, which should begin at Deer Lake around 8:45.
