The skies at America’s Darkest Sky Star Party will be terrifically dark this weekend.
On Saturday, April 29 — this weekend!!! — I’ll be joining Senior Editor Michael Bakich for a star party and series of talks in southwestern New Mexico. At America’s Darkest Sky Star Party, we’ll celebrate the best sky you can observe from in the Continental United States.

Michael and I will each give two talks, on subjects from the latest discoveries in astronomy and planetary science to this year’s big eclipse to challenging and weird deep-sky targets for observing.
If you’re in the area between Tucson, El Paso, and Las Cruces — or even in Phoenix or Albuquerque, join us!! We’ll see you there for a great day of astronomy!
