MIRA’s “Race to Space” Community Stargazing Event -- Friday, August 22nd at Laguna Seca Raceway

MIRA’s “Race to Space” Community Stargazing Event -- Friday, August 22nd at Laguna Seca Raceway

Weathertech Raceway and the MIRA Astronomy Club present a free Stargazing Event. This existing & educational event takes place at Laguna Seca Raceway at Hospitality Island in the Lakebed.

Come along to this great dark sky venue and take a look through one of our scopes, or bring your own. We can even offer advice on how to set your up if you’re new to this.

This event is appropriate for children and adults of all ages. For comfort, warm clothing and hot drinks are encouraged. Bring a flashlight (with a red lens). Rain, fog or cloud cover would cancel the event.

Spectators are asked to park on the perimeter of the island. If leaving or arriving during the event, try to keep headlights off the group as much as possible.
