Widener to Host Stargazing Night for Teachers March 12


The Widener University Observatory invites area teachers through the secondary level to a special stargazing session using the observatory’s 16-inch computerized reflecting telescope. Open to the first 20 teachers who register, the session will take place Tuesday, March 12 from 7 to 8 p.m., weather permitting.

Interested teachers can register by calling 610-499-4003 or e-mailing tasminkey@widener.edu. This free session is designed to give teachers an up-close look at the moon, planets and stars so that they can later share their experience with students. Widener astronomy professors and students will be on hand to guide participants on a tour of the night sky.

The Widener University Observatory is located on the 5th floor of Kirkbride Hall on 17th and Walnut Streets in Chester, Pa.
