Milky Way over Great Basin National Park, Melissa Renfro
Dark Skies, Bright Minds is the outreach and education initiative of the Great Basin Observatory, which aims to engage students, teachers, Park visitors, and the public in the Great Basin area and beyond, to feel a sense of wonder and awe at the scale and complexity of the Cosmos, whilst inspiring the care and preservation of resources on our one and only Earth.
Dark Skies, Bright Minds offers multiple programs for middle and high school students, our partner university's students, and supports Great Basin National Park's education goals using our strategic resources, which include our Observatory partners, our dark skies and our research grade telescope.
Please join the Great Basin Observatory to protect dark skies and produce bright minds!
