A Hubble Space Telescope photo of three gas pillars in the Eagle Nebula. 

This event is in partnership with the San Jose Astronomical Association.

During this hour, you'll gain an appreciation for the size and scale of the cosmos and our place within it. You'll see many examples of the beautiful objects visible in the night sky, learn something about how we see them through our telescopes and what we can deduce about them through the light they send us. And then you can make your own prediction of whether we're alone in the universe.

For ages 10+.
