Hi Darryl,

Although it seems like two separate events, its the New Hampshire Astronomical Society that actually sets up the telescopes for patrons and visitors of the Planetarium, We are closely asssociated with each other, we set up before the show starts and we usually are there unitl way after the planetarium is closed.

The arrangement benefits both NHAS and The Christa Mc Auliffe Planetarium, as long as the weather is clear the telecopes are there regardless of whether or not you pay to see the show, All of our events are free and open to the public, But not the planetarium for that there is an admission fee, you dont have to go to the show to attend the public skywatch

Thanks Dennis
