Desert Foothills Land Trust and the Holland Community Center present the Foothills Speaker Series: Reaching for the Heavens.

Renn will guide attendees through the Vatican Observatory’s history, from 16th century calendar reform to current cosmic explorations. He’ll also explore Arizona’s astronomy, including ideal stargazing conditions and observatories like the Vatican’s on Mt. Graham. This free event promises an enlightening look at the intersection of philosophy, science, and the wonders of the night sky.

This event is free, though donations are graciously accepted.
