Ready to be a Globe at Night citizen scientist?

The gang is excited and getting ready to be GLOBE at Night citizen scientists!

The whole neighborhood is interested and it is turning into a real family event. Tuesday March 13 through – Thursday March 22   2012, at night when it is dark, the gang and their families are planning to observe and record at http://www.globeatnight.org/webapp/  the magnitude of visible stars as a means of measuring light pollution in the very spot where they are standing.  And since it only really takes about 15-30 minutes to complete, it leaves more time for star gazing.

Do YOU and you family want to get in on the fun and be Night citizen scientists too?  Check out this link http://www.globeatnight.org/pdf/GaNActivityPacket_Family_2012_Orion.pdf                                              to download your free “Family Activity Packet: Observation Guide” and get ready to be a part of a Global Event!

Then come back here to the clubhouse and share what you observed.  Think how cool it will be to read what different members of the gang from around the world saw from where they stood.
