George Observatory

HMNS hosted a member night at the George Observatory in Brazos Bend State Park.  We headed down south, with a stop at Niko Nikos in Pearland for dinner along the way, to check out the stars.  We got to the park a bit early, so we did a little exploring while it was still light out.  We saw a lot of deer, but no alligators, which was a little disappointing.  We will visit the park again during the day to try and spot some.  Finley had so much fun with the telescopes.  She saw Jupiter and its moons, a nebula and even the craters on the moon!
