The University of Colorado at Boulder's Fiske Planetarium and Sommers-Bausch Observatory will be open to the public for a special viewing of Saturn on Friday, Dec. 6, from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., weather permitting.
The free event is the first in a series planned for the upcoming year to celebrate the Cassini spacecraft mission to explore Saturn. After a seven-year journey, the spacecraft will arrive at the planet in July 2004.
Staff from the observatory and the planetarium will show the latest pictures from the Cassini mission and answer questions about the ringed planet, while also offering assistance with viewing.
