Hamptons Observatory, and co-host Friends of the Long Pond Greenbelt, are pleased to present a free, virtual lecture by Hamptons Observatory’s Senior Educator and NASA Solar System Ambassador, William Francis Taylor.

What makes the days shorter, the nights longer, and the air cooler? And what heavenly bodies and celestial events can we observe for the remainder of the year? In this free virtual (Zoom) event, we will discuss the seasons, such special events as meteor showers and the total lunar eclipse on November 7th - 8th, as well as planets that will be visible (especially Saturn and Jupiter). William will also provide an illustrated update on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

Hamptons Observatory Senior Educator, William Francis Taylor, has been a NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador since 2014, lecturing about the universe around us and sharing his love of the heavens by giving guided tours of the sky through telescopes. He is a life-long East End resident.

Hamptons Observatory would like to thank Friends of the Long Pond Greenbelt for its kind collaboration, and William Francis Taylor for sharing his expertise.

While this is a free lecture, donations are appreciated to help support our programs.
