Cabo San Lucas, Mexico (May 14, 2018) — Grand Velas Los Cabos is relaunching its stargazing experience for guests just in time for prime-time viewing season. Courtesy of a high-quality 127 mm Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope, guests will discover the stars, planets and constellations stretching over the Los Cabos Baja Peninsula, considered by NASA one of the top 20 places to research the night-sky. In summer, approximately 75% of constellations are visible and planets like Jupiter, Mars and Saturn raise earlier. In addition to scoping the Milky Way, Zodiac Signs, and many nebula (star clusters), participants will play games and learn about the Mayan Calendar and Native American moons.
