Chabot Space Place

We had a nice weekend...went to the temple, ran the usual errands (do I even need to say where?), church, watched Be Kind Rewind and went to the Chabot Space & Science Center. It's in Oakland and on Saturday, all the Smithsonian-related museums were free, so we went. Alex had been wanting to go since he's quite the astronomy lover. And, yay, we saved $30!

Of course, being a free day, it was extra crowded so we didn't get to see any shows (sold out). Thus, the coolest part of the museum were the big telescopes. We got to see a big star cluster through this one. The worker told us how many light years away it was, but I have no clue now.

We also took one of those email-yourself portraits. This is us in a spaceship!!!
