Saturday Feb 21 7 - 9 pm

The Orion Nebula NOAO/NSF

The University of California, Irvine, invites the public to attend Visitor Night at the UCI Observatory. Use our telescopes to see Venus, Saturn, the Orion Nebula and star clusters. Listen to a lecture entitled "Cosmology and Dark Matter" by Dr. James Bullock.  The Observatory is located on the UCI campus. Visitors should park in the ICS/Engineering Parking Structure at the corner of E. Peltason and Anteater Drives for a $7 fee. Free shuttle buses will transport you between the Parking Structure and the gravel road to the Observatory. Shuttles will depart every 10 minutes starting a half hour before and ending a half hour after the event. Only in the unlikely event of rain will Visitor Night be canceled, and a notice will be posted on our website by 3 pm that day. For additional information or to request email notices of future events, please see our web site: http://www.physics.uci.edu/~observat.

The UCI Observatory is operated by the Department of Physics & Astronomy, and Visitor Nights are funded by the School of Physical Sciences.
