Several RAC members gathered on the roof of the Science and Math building at Meredith College to provide an observing session for teens attending the Governor Morehead School. The weather looked threatening throughout the afternoon, but storms held off and we were able to observe despite the clouds. Daniel Murphy was our Governor Morehead School coordinator.
Over 125 of North Carolina’s brightest rising seniors enjoyed views of Saturn, Mars, Jupiter, the moon and stars through telescopes ranging from 4 to 11 inches. The teens were very well behaved, curious and asked great questions. It was a very enjoyable evening for all.
