A Geminid Meteor	Saturday Feb 20 7 - 9 pm	Globular Cluster M3

The University of California, Irvine, invites the public to attend Visitor Night at the UCI Observatory  Come and use our telescopes to see the star-forming Orion Nebula and many different star clusters. Listen to a lecture entitled "Solar System Debris: Comets, Asteroids & Meteoroids" by Professor Tammy Smecker-Hane.  The Observatory is located on the UCI campus. Visitors should park in the ICS/Engineering Parking Structure at E. Peltason and Anteater Dr. ($8 maximum). 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. Visitor Nights are free, but the suggested donation is $5 per family. Visitor Nights are cancelled due only to rain, and if so 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.
