1st Annual Angel Valley BnB Messier Marathon Star Party
Join us for the 1st Annual Angel Valley BnB Messier Marathon Star Party. First, some background. The Messier catalogue was compiled by French astronomer Charles Messier during the late 18th century and consists of 110 deep sky objects such as galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. The best time to view all the Messier objects is mid-late March. A Messier Marathon is an attempt to find as many Messier objects as possible in a single night. THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR THIS EVENT.
