Description

Take a drive away from city lights and join us in North Shore for an evening of stargazing in partnership with Rancho Mirage Library and Observatory (RMLO).Right on the shore of the Salton sea, the North Shore Beach and Yacht Club (99155 Sea View Dr, Mecca CA 92254) offers dark skies and quiet surroundings. RMLO will have telescopes set up for magnified viewing, but all are encouraged to simply look up and enjoy the splendor of the starlit sky. Outdoor chairs and blankets are encouraged! Throughout the evening, members of the Observatory team will be present to share facts and stories about the visible objects and answer all of your space questions. A UV light night walk, and family-friendly crafts will be available for patrons as well! As courtesy to you and your fellow patrons, we ask that you minimize your light production when stargazing. Please refrain from using handheld screens (such as cellphones and tablets), taking photographs with flash, and wearing light up shoes. Registration is required.
