Measuring Our Dark Skies: Citizen Science Project & Telescope Viewing

Join Ranger Kendra and Voyageurs Conservancy Dark Sky Specialist Jesse to learn about light pollution that threatens these dark skies.  Participate in a citizen science project to raise awareness of the impact of light pollution by measuring and submitting night sky brightness observations to Globe at Night.  Afterwards, gaze into a telescope and get a view of star nurseries, distant galaxies, planets and more!
