to
Peaks of Otter Lodge Mile Post 86 Blue Ridge Parkway, Bedford County, Virginia 24523
Join Greg Redfern, an adjunct professor/instructor of astronomy since 1984 and a NASA JPL Solar System Ambassador since 2003, for this engaging presentation. Learn where NASA is headed, literally, with new manned spacecraft and rockets to launch the next generation of American astronauts. A jacket is recommended, and a flashlight is helpful. Free to all parkway visitors.
“The Peaks Under the Stars” – If the sky is clear after the presentation, our guests will move outdoors to the lawn area at the edge of the lake to see the night sky in all its glory at the Peaks. Major constellations and visible planets (if any) will be pointed out with some sky lore added.
