Northern Lights Watch Party

July 13, 2023 @ 10:00 pm11:59 pm EDT

High-intensity solar winds may cause displays of the Aurora Borealis—also known as the Northern Lights—that will be visible in Maryland as far south as Annapolis this week. Due to requests from the community, we will be holding a Northern Lights watch party at the Greenbelt Observatory on Thursday, July 13, 10:00 pm–midnight, weather permitting.

Members of the Astronomical Society of Greenbelt will be on hand to answer any questions.

This event is free and open to the public.

Please note: The forecast from NOAA has changed, and the new forecast shows little chance of the aurorae being visible in our area. We will still host the party as scheduled, but people should temper their expectations.
