Miami GoCard. One all-access pass to Miami attractions at a low price.
A 30-acre park and nature center featuring bird-watching sites, nature trails, picnic shelters, a playground and nearby fishing area. Offers guided tours, educational programs and free star watching. Meet the friendly SOUTHERN CROSS ASTROS, 8-10 p.m. every Saturday evening all year at the popular, outdoor SCAS Observatory. Weather permitting, the free, public SCAS Saturday Nite Live weekly event provides sharp images of planets, Moon, deep sky objects and seasonal constellations in hi-tech equipment staffed by SCAS members. You might see a satellite, a brilliant meteor or the International Space Station from the darkest skies nearest to Miami. If your telescope needs `help‘ our SCAS techs will come to your rescue!

Don‘t leave home before checking the weather forecast! Bring your date, family, boss, friends, classmates, mother-in-law, house guests or just yourself, folding chairs, snacks and the Bug Cream! Wear jeans and bring a long-sleeved top. It‘s a fun and free educational evening under the stars....the best deal in town! Director Barb Yager advises to plan your visit when the magnificent planets: ringed Saturn rises in the east late evening, fiery Mars in the south, and brilliant Venus rising in the west -- all will be visible in November.
