Mt Palomar Observatory

For more videos check out: http://www.anythinggoesproductions.com and to read Maureen's great blog on California check out: http://www.calitravelgirl.com California's Five Minute Travels, Episode 8: Mt Palomar Observatory. When traveling around California have you ever tried looking up? At Mt. Palomar Observatory in San Diego, CA you can explore the world above your head by touring the famous 200" telescope and learning about discoveries in the cosmos in the newly renovated museum! And here's a tip, bring warm clothes, because they keep the telescope around the same temperature as it is at night. That could mean around 30-40 degrees on Mt. Palomar! Enjoy space travelers!
