On Saturday, if you are looking for a way to take in the cosmos without buying a telescope, here's some good news: The Griffith Observatory is holding its monthly Public Star Party. Starting at 2 p.m. and running until 9:45 p.m., the observatory will open its lawns and surrounding sections of Griffith Park for star-gazers to seek out the cosmos.
Best of all, the star parties are free.
With the help of the Los Angeles Astronomical Society, you'll get to peer into serious telescopic equipment and seek out your favorite planet. How pretty are Saturn's rings? You'll be able to judge for yourself.
This is the second to last star party of the year. For the full schedule, try the observatory's site.
