In this workshop, participants will learn how to identify many of the constellations that are visible in the Spring sky through an interactive astronomy software simulation exercise. The workshop will provide participants with a planisphere that will allow them to put into practice what they learn. There will be a focus on basic sky movement, helping participants find constellations as they move through the night and seasons. Finally, participants will be able to identify the constellations in which the planets Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are currently located.
