A star party is planned at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 27, at Homolovi State Park, located five miles northeast of Winslow, where you will have an opportunity to see the new 10’ Observatory telescope at the park visitor center-museum. The sky promises spectacular views of ghostly nebulae, star clusters, the moon’s cratered landscapes and Venus’ crescent phases. Bring a chair, red illumination flashlight, refreshments and bug repellent. There will also be a special session on using your DSLR camera to take pictures. Participants should bring a camera and a tripod, if they have one. Admission is the $7 per vehicle park entrance fee. Homolovi, one of a series of many ancient Hopi pueblos found in the Southwest, offers the public the opportunity to begin their journey into Hopi life and culture. Like the modern visitor making their way to Hopi, Homolovi was a stop for the ancestral Hopi people along their migration route, eventually moving on and settling at one of the current Hopi villages.
