Astronomy Day 2006

National Astronomy Day occurred on May 6, 2006. Several people from LCOGT celebrated at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History. There were hands-on activities run by members of the museum's teen program, telescopes with solar filters set up by the Santa Barbara Astronomical Unit for safe viewing of sunspots and the active corona, a raffle for kids with a telescope as a prize, and lots of information about astronomy!
