People line up to look through the telescope by the Center for Astrophysics tent at the Tucson Festival of Books at the University of Arizona Mall on March 16. People could experience all types of scientific activities during the festival.

Once again it’s that time of the Spring semester, where we all get to enjoy the Festival of Books, on the University of Arizona’s mall. Tucson’s festival of books is the second-largest literary festival in the country, with over 300 authors and about 130,000 attendees. The two-day event occurred March 15-16 and will be back next Spring in case you missed it.
