I've been once before, to see Jupiter (I think it was Jupiter hehe), and though it's a small set up, it's really amazing to be able to see something so far away!
I plan to stop by tonight TUES 7/20 - b/c I'll be traveling again for the next few weeks! This is what we'll see, acc. to their website:

Maybe later this summer, we can take another trip to Inwood Park with AAA to see the full night sky (remember when we went the first time? POST) - I hear there is another meteor shower or something neat to see in a few months - will keep you posted!
Email me to meet up (nycolor.is.life@gmail.com) - and make a wish!
