<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">Paul Cézanne has been looking up at the night sky since he was a child living in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Thrilled by Neil Armstrong’s moon-walk, he was determined to learn more about the twinkling world known as the “outer space.” While his career path as a software engineer led him down a different road, he continues to pursue his interests in astronomy through local amateur groups. And Cézanne is equally passionate about education.

Occasionally you’ll also see him on a weekend night on MacMillan Wharf in Provincetown inviting passers-by to look at the moon through his scope!</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">In the June 23 workshop at Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, Cézanne will introduce participants to how the sky moves through the night and the seasons; help identify the summer constellations—both how to spot them and to their history and mythology; explain our planet’s position in the Milky Way; and go outside (weather permitting) to find summer constellations including the Big Dipper, Leo, Hercules, Cygnus, the Summer Triangle, Scorpius, and Sagitarius. </FONT></SPAN></P>
