Astronomy Tour

Overview
A tour for all ages just outside of Boulder (accessible by Taxi, Lyft & Uber). Tours start at sunset and last for 2 hours. The show will explore the night sky with several large telescopes and a laser pointer. We will see and learn about planets, constellations, navigation, satellites, nebula, clusters, galaxies, maybe some shooting stars, and our universe. Through telescopes we will get up close looks at these objects and take in their beauty with our own eyes. The tour takes place at a easy to find trailhead (no hiking required) where phenomenal sunsets and wildlife are often seen. Guests are provided with a red flashlight, comfy camp seating, bug spray, snacks, hot water, tea, instant coffee, hot chocolate, and cookies. Guests are encouraged to bring questions, wonderment, and warm clothing (it can get cool after sunset)

It was cool, worth the money. Lucas makes it fun and provides very good information. He has several telescopes and takes the time to explain what each does best.

Luke was not quite what I expected when my family pulled up in the woods north of boulder. Nor did I expect the wide array of telescopes he manages to fit into his vehicle. These are no kiddie telescopes. When we could see 4 of the moons of Jupiter as well as the ring of Jupiter in the southwestern sky, we were needless to say amazed. He was able to point out stars with his green laser pointer and make the presentation interesting for all involved, including the kids.
