Join the Department of Astronomy for live views of several deep-sky targets from the dark skies at McDonald Observatory, starting at 10pm Central time. Your host Stephen Hummel will show you views from a camera attached to a research-grade 16" telescope at the Frank N. Bash Visitors Center. Early Summer skies in the Northern Hemisphere are full of wonderful gems to explore!
