Weekend Spotlight: Constellations

Weekends, January 5 - March 31
12:30 – 2 pm, 2:30 – 4 pm
Chabot Space & Science Center Galleries

Come explore our featured constellation each weekend! Construct a three-dimensional model of the constellation to show the distances to stars, or make up your own picture and story for how the group of stars came to be in the sky. You can also make a star finder to take home and learn how to find the constellation of the day (and others!) in the sky.

Activities are offered on a drop-in basis (participants may wander in and out any time).
