To begin exploring, simply aim Skyview at the sky and find out what galaxies, constellations, and stars are surrounding you.

DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE SPHS LITTLE FREE LIBRARY
What is a Little Free Library?
A Little Free Library is a “take a book, return a book” free book exchange. They come in many shapes and sizes, but the most common version is a small wooden box of books. Anyone may take a book or bring a book to share.
How do I donate books?
Anyone can share books in local Little Free Library book-sharing boxes! Visit the SPHS Little Free Library and leave some books inside. It’s that easy! Please be respectful, though, and don’t cram books in a Library that’s already full.
