the U-Mass Astronomy Department's Sunwheel: Earth's newest, most advanced neolithic astronomical Stone Circle / Happy Summer Solstice 2007!


THURSDAY 21 JUNE 2007
is the Summer Solstice
-- the Longest Day of the Year
in the Northern Hemisphere.

Hereabouts
Solstice Sunrise
will be observed at 5 am
at the Sunwheel
University of Massachusetts at Amherst

The Sunwheel will also observe

Solstice Sunrise at 5 am Friday
and observes Solstice Sunsets
at 7:30 pm Thursday & Friday

The same Raptor, or maybe Corvine, is believed to return to the same stone of the Sunwheel at sunrise for each Summer Solstice.
