    Roadmap to the Stars: The Night Sky Explained with Kevin
When you wish upon a star, wouldn't it be good to know which star it is and what constellation it lies in? Objects in the night sky can be pinpointed with a little understanding of the celestial sphere and its coordinates. Hands-on activities using star charts will serve to bring the point home.
Kevin has worked as a consultant with NASA, the Chandra X-Ray Observatory launched on the space shuttle with the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, and other ground-based observatories and with Brookhaven National Laboratory.
Kevin goes to great lengths to communicate his passion for the amazing world of outer space in terms that all ages can understand. His love for it clearly shows up in all he does.
