Do you know a dinosaur lover?! If so, tomorrow's public planetarium show would be a great one to catch! "DinoSoars: Change Over Time" shares insight on dinosaur history, as well as how while they are extinct, some of their ancestors are still among us on Earth!
Here's our schedule for the week! Hope to see you at the planetarium sometime soon!

The Leonids shooting stars are visible between Nov. 6 - 30, and peak the next night or two, with up to 10 meteors per hour. It is called the Leonids because its radiant, or point in the sky where the meteors emerge from, lies in the constellation of Leo!

Have you gotten a peek at Venus after sunset yet? If not, you should try! Venus treks across the Milky Way & is easy to spot. Looking SW, Venus remains visible for about two hours after sunset. Right now, it stands 1.5° south of M8, the Lagoon Nebula.
