The public is invited to “Melodies
Under the Milky Way” for an evening of music in the mountains and a
mini-program of presentations and activities about the sun, moon, and light pollution.
Park Ranger Adrianna Weickhardt adds: "We are pleased to be hosting Travis Manning, a musician from Las Cruces, New
Mexico, who will be providing musical entertainment including tunes from the
classic rock era as well as some surprise 'astro-tunes'. Hot cocoa and
coffee will be available, as well as a few astronomically decadent treats such
as Mars bars, Milky Way bars, and Starbursts. We’ll have at least one
telescope out to use after the program concludes to observe Jupiter and the
crescent moon.
This program is presented to you by your park rangers from
Hueco Tanks SP&HS and Franklin Mountains SP, and astronomers from the El Paso
and Las Cruces astronomy clubs.
After entering the Tom Mays Unit, drive all the way to the end of the park. (Map)
