Gazing into the skies at night can be a great way to open up the mind and take in comets and planets in our own solar system to distant galaxies. Coming up at the end of the month is an event called the Astronomy Jamboree with live music, crafts for kids, and of course telescopes to view the skies. It’s an annual event that’s been going on for 30 years. Alysia Callison with Nature Manager Center Rock Springs in Decatur, says what’s going on.
