Field Trips |
January-April 2008 (archived)
May
May 17, 2008, 9:00 AM
Pima Air & Space Museum
6000 East Valencia Road
http://www.pimaair.org
Pima Air & Space Museum is one of the largest museums of its type in
the world. It has nearly 300 aircraft on display. Much of it is
outside, so be sure to dress appropriately and bring some bottled water.
We will meet at the museum, 6000 East Valencia Road, at 9am,
Saturday, May 17th. The admission fee is $13.50.
June
June 7, 2008
Kitt Peak National Observatory
http://www.noao.edu/outreach/kpoutreach.html
Kitt Peak houses the worlds largest collection of optical telescopes.
It is on the Tohono O'odham reservation, about 50 miles from Downtown
Tucson. Just get on Ajo Way and drive west until you see the turn off.
There are no food services on the mountain, so be sure to bring food
and drinks. The altitude is almost 7000ft, and is usually about 20
degrees cooler than Tucson, so dress accordingly. The drive up the
mountain is on a very good paved road. Once at the top, there are
several telescopes to visit within an easy walk of the parking lot,
and some nice views of the surrounding desert. The walking areas on
the peak are mostly paved, but can be fairly steep.
Admission is free, although there are guided tours available for $4
per person.
We will probably set up some kind of car pool for this. More
information soon ... |
