KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – Join the Taylor Observatory-Norton Planetarium on Saturday, March 16, for its latest “Window to the Universe,” which will be a presentation on asteroids by Taylor Staff member, Janis Traub.

The presentation will take place from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. at the observatory, 5725 Oak Hills Lane, Kelseyville.

Of all the natural disasters that could befall us, only an Earth impact by a large comet or asteroid has the potential to end civilization in a single blow.

Yet these near-Earth objects also offer tantalizing clues to our solar system's origins, and someday could even serve as stepping-stones for space exploration.

Lake County's Window to the Universe is held on the third Saturday of each month. The evening's event includes a science topic presentation, a planetarium experience and astronomical viewing. Public Events are held regardless of weather. Please dress accordingly.

Suggested donation is $5 per adult and $3 per child under 12 years.
