Amateur astronomers recently got a glimpse into the cosmos during a Dark-Sky Star Party at the Santa Margarita Lake KOA campground.

Stargazers used telescopes and binoculars to peer into the black night sky during the event, which was organized by the Central Coast Astronomical Society.

The gatherings are put together each month and are designed to promote astronomy, according to the club.
