Dr. Jason Pinkney, of the Department of Physics and Astronomy, invites the public to "The Galaxies of Spring" program on Friday, April 5 from 9-11 p.m. at the ONU Observatory. 

Galaxies are a swirling collection of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter. They are generally difficult to see with telescopes because they are so far away and faint. During this time of the year, however, the closest concentrations of galaxies are positioned high in the sky by midnight.
