Thomas’ January Lectures Canceled; Star Parties Continue
Northern Nevada history and science lecturer Mike Thomas has put his free lectures
on hold at ¼«ËÙ6ºÏs Jack C. Davis Observatory to protect attendees
from possibly contracting the Omicron variant of COVID.
His free presentations on Witches and Aliens in the Movies were rescheduled from December
to January because of icy road conditions.
Even though the lectures have been canceled, JCDO will continue to hold its weekly
Star Parties after sundown on Saturday nights.
The observatory is open to the public from sundown to 11 p.m. on Saturday nights for
Star Parties. The Western Nevada Astronomical Society hosts these parties, bringing
together people with an interest in astronomy. Newcomers are welcome.
The observatory is located at 2699 Vanpatten Drive in Carson City.
