My Stars! Peace Comes at Twilight


Stars over the Pike at Rainbow Harbor will be on display at the Pike from August 21 through September 6. The collection of photographs features landmarks from around the world after sunset. The exhibit is part of The World at Night, a worldwide exhibit of photographs celebrating the International Year of Astronomy 2009. The awe-inspiring images are intended to creat public interest in astronomy as well as demonstrate the universal appeal of stars, planets and, well, the universe. The Pike is also offering star gazer nights with local astronomers tonight and next Friday night, September 4 from 8:30 to 10:30 pm. Dancing Under the Stars features a swing band tomorrow night and latin dance next Saturday, September 5. While you're there might as well do your best to touch the stars on the giant Ferris wheel.
