Friday evening Public Open Houses at the Prince George Astronomical Observatory resume on January 17th at 7:30 pm with the talk ‘Winter Constellations’ presented by Glen Harris. Telescopic viewing and a laser tour of the night sky will follow, weather permitting. Dress warmly as the evenings can be cool.
