To have a star party, find a dark spot away from bright lights on a clear night. Bring blankets to lie on and look up at the sky. If you have binoculars or a telescope, you can see even more! Try to find constellations, spot planets, and look for shooting stars. You can also bring hot chocolate and snacks to make it extra special.
- Some towns and cities hold big star parties where everyone is invited.
- The best time for a star party is when there is no bright moon in the sky.
- You might even see the International Space Station flying overhead, which looks like a bright, moving star!
