Stamford Museum and Nature Center


Greetings from Connecticut!
The Universe is just awesome..in the truest meaning of the word. Learned something last night about the formation of the elements (which I shall undoubtedly write about in the future...it's just too cool), observed Jupiter and three of its satellites, and peeked at the Andromeda galaxy.
The Stamford Museum and Nature Center is a delightful and wonderfully eclectic complex; among its assets are an observatory and planetarium, the Heckscher [Educational] Farm, a museum housed in the Bendel Mansion, and nature trails.
Very enjoyable way to spend a day...or two :-)
