Today every backyard astronomer has at their disposal an immensely powerful arsenal of digital tools to help explore the night sky, showing you how to view everything from ISS passes to comets and much more. Join Standley Lake Stargazing for an introduction to popular stargazing software and apps such as Stellarium, SkySafari and NASA’s interactive web tools, along with a few others. We’ll cover the basics and also preview a few advanced features if you’d like to spend more time learning these tools.
You’re invited to download Stellarium in advance on your phone or computer/tablet if you’d like to follow along on your device. Visit https://stellarium.org/ or search your platform’s app store for ‘Stellarium’.
