SUMMARY:Friday Night Lecture Series: "The Place Called Outer Space"
DESCRIPTION:Only one hour away if you could drive straight up–the intrigue of space began thousands of years ago\, reached a golden age in the century span prior to this year and could have a platinum age depending on what choices we make on these coming nights…. [Postponed from 30 May. For ages fourteen and older. No admission fee.]

SUMMARY:The Edge of Night
DESCRIPTION:Personnel will attempt viewing at the Burbank Soccer Complex for at least forty-five minutes. \nIt’s not light. It’s not dark. It’s that special time called twilight and HRPO wants to introduce you to it! Are all sections of the sky the same shade of blue? Which stars are seen first? Are Mercury and Venus or the Moon out? Is that moving object a plane\, a weather balloon\, a satellite or debris in outer space? How much actual darkness should be expected in cities of a certain population? There is no other time like twilight. Bring it into your life! [For ages six and older. No admission fee. A change of venue occurred for this event since an elongation of Mercury will take place simultaneously!] \nNOAA Forecast (Fair): precipitation potential 7%\, sky cover 65%\, relative humidity 66%\, temperature 32C\, heat index 37C\, wind NW 3 km/h
