Please join us for an engaging evening starting with a few words by local-born National Geographic photographer and adventurer Pete McBride who will introduce our guest speaker Dr. Jeffrey Hall. Dr. Hall is the Executive Director of the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona who will share with us Lowell’s ongoing legacy of cutting-edge research of our solar system and beyond using the Lowell Discovery Telescope ~ and how that research began to be challenged by the quiet, steady invasion of light pollution. As a result, Dr. Hall worked extensively on dark sky preservation in Flagstaff and throughout Arizona; his dedication resulted in Flagstaff becoming the World’s First International Dark Sky City in 2001. WildSky Old Snowmass is endeavoring to walk down this path to become the first certified International Dark Sky Community in the Roaring Fork Valley.
