🌌 Fun Fact Friday | Stargazing Edition

Did you know the Summer Triangle connects stars from three different constellations?

This recognizable pattern is formed by three bright stars: Vega in Lyra, Deneb in Cygnus, and Altair in Aquila. Together they create a large triangle in the night sky! The Summer Triangle is called an “asterism,” meaning a recognizable star pattern rather than an official constellation. Think of it as a landmark that helps you find your way around the sky.

And despite its name, you can still spot it on autumn evenings. On the next clear night, look up and see if you can find all three stars.

This week, we're celebrating space science, technology, and the discoveries that help us better understand our universe! 🌎🔭✨

World Space Week (October 4–10) highlights the importance of continued exploration, education, and discovery beyond our planet.

At Wyoming Stargazing, we believe the wonders of the universe should be accessible to everyone. Through immersive learning and opportunities to observe the night sky, we hope to inspire curiosity and connect our community to the cosmos.

After all, space is for everyone! 🌌

Still smiling about Old Bill’s Fun Run! ☀️

We had so much fun celebrating with our community at the Old Bill’s Fun Run earlier this month! From bubbles and solar viewing to seeing so many familiar and new faces, the day was full of fun and the best community spirit. 🔭🫧

We want to thank everyone who stopped by our booth, voted for our coffee names, or supported Teton Science Schools during the Old Bill’s giving period! 💚

We’re so grateful to be part of a community that continues to show up for local organizations and the amazing work they do.

A big thank you to for another wonderful Old Bill’s!

Take a look at the Moon! 🌔

Tonight is International Observe the Moon Night, a celebration of our closest neighbor in space and the important place it holds in our world.

The best part about observing the Moon? Anyone can do it!

What do you notice? What do you wonder? Sometimes, exploring the universe starts with something as simple as looking up.

Did you know the word equinox comes from Latin words meaning “equal night”?

The September equinox is right around the corner, marking the astronomical start of fall in the Northern Hemisphere! 🍂

During the equinox, Earth’s tilt is perpendicular to the Sun’s rays, with the Sun shining directly over the equator. The result? Day and night are nearly equal in length around the world.

From here, our nights keep getting longer, which means more time to look up and enjoy the night sky! 🔭✨

Happy almost autumn, stargazers!
