Starry Safari is on for tomorrow night with clear skies forecast!! 🌌🔭 At 8:00, we’ll turn our telescope to colorful clouds of gas where stars have explosively ended and, then, to others where new stars are beginning to shine. Our image of the Cygnus Wall shows one such star nursery. 📸: Ron S., VP of Innovative Technology & Interpretation #GreensboroScienceCenter #VisitGSO #StarrySafari #CygnusWall #Astrophotography #StarGazing

Happy Maned Wolf Day from Guapa and Oceano! Today we are celebrating these amazing animals and our partnership with AZA SAFE (Saving Animals From Extinction). Maned wolves are not only stunning, but they also play an important role in the environment! #ManedWolves are vital seed dispersers of the lobeira, a small tomato-like berry. Researchers have discovered that traveling through the maned wolf’s system helps the lobeira seeds to germinate, creating even more food for maned wolves and other animals that eat the lobeira. By working together to support maned wolf #conservation efforts, other valuable species of flora and fauna are also protected. ¡Feliz día del lobo de crin desde Guapa y Océano! Hoy celebramos a estos increíbles animales y nuestra asociación con AZA SAFE (Salvando animales de la extinción). Además de ser animales muy particulares, los lobos de crin juegan un importante rol en sus ambientes naturales. Conrolan pestes y son dispersores de semillas, por ejemplo de la lobeira, una fruta similar al tomate. Investigadores han descubierto que al pasar por el sistema digestivo del animal, estas semillas comienzan a germinar, facilitando así que exista más alimento para esa y muchas otras especies de animales. El trabajo en equipo por la #conservación del #lobodecrin, también beneficia a otras valiosas especies de flora y fauna. #GreensboroScienceCenter #VisitGSO #ManedWolfDay

Terrestrial Tuesdays with Huck, our black-footed cat! 🐱 How can one of the "deadliest" cats be one of the cutest? Black-footed cats are known as the "deadliest cat" due to a hunting success rate of about 60%. Black-footed cats are also the smallest of the African cats! 📸 : Keeper Megan #GreensboroScienceCenter #VisitGSO #BlackFootedCat #Cat #Cutie
