Parade of Planets: Telescope Program

Joder Ranch Trailhead North Foothills Highway 7481, Boulder, Colorado, United States

Join Naturalist Dave Sutherland for a free trip through the Solar System. This December, a lucky lineup lets us view 7 of 8 planets in a single evening! Bring your holiday visitors along to dance with giant Jupiter’s moons, rejoice with Saturn’s rings, visit Venus (the Earth’s infernal twin) and marvel at the distant blue-green worlds of Uranus and Neptune. If you stay late, you can glimpse the polar ice caps on Mars. Note: we will not need telescopes to see the Earth. Jaw-dropping galaxies, star clusters, and nebulae added at no extra charge! It may be chilly, so definitely dress for the cold.
