During the month of August, the famous dark skies of Sedona, Arizona put on a spectacular display. Now in its second year, the Sedona Star Party is an opportunity for the community to witness nature’s celestial majesty in all its glory. The astronomers of the Verde Valley will provide telescopes for free viewing and laser-guided constellation tours, giving participants the chance to view the Summer Milky Way, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, and more.
