Stargazing at the Park

October 20, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Join us at Argyle Lake State Park for two evenings of stargazing with retired WIU astronomy instructor Tom Van Heuklon and hobby astronomer Larry Knicl. Depending on the date, we will be observing Jupiter, Mars Neptune, Saturn Venus, the Orionids meteor shower, the Moon and many deep sky objects including star clusters, nebulae and galaxies, in addition to several constellations. These programs will be held at the park’s Sunset shelter (1st left turn upon entering the park). For your comfort, bring a chair or blanket, insect repellent, and a flashlight. These programs may be canceled if weather conditions are bad or visibility is poor. Please call (309)776-3422 or email Bridget.Hinchee@illinois.gov
