Comments or interesting anecdotes about the event:
I showed them how to read a starmap. We had a chance to observe jupiter before it set then we laid back and watched the meteor shower as they asked questions and I pointed out different constellations. They enjoyed it alot. It doesn't have to be a big function, just have friends and family over and share the wonders of our universe with them.
