The Silver Queen gondola will be open late for this special community astronomy night featuring a STARLAB planetarium tent, guided telescope stations, interactive presentations, legends and facts of the constellations, celestial crafts and games, star-storytelling, space-themed face painting, a collaborative mural of the universe, physics experiments, and more. Scheduled events include a sunset yoga class for all ages from 6:30pm – 7:30pm. At 8:15pm, ACES will welcome our keynote speaker. In addition, the Sundeck Restaurant will be open for drinks and dinner. Guests should be prepared for evening mountain temperatures.
