Was at Kennedy Space Center yesterday and our tour bus had to pull over because a Falcon 9 was being transported on the same street!

Driving to Borrego Springs at San Diego for stargazing at night

We were visiting San Diego near new moon during kinda summers (~4 Sep) so thought a short trip for star gazing at Borrego Springs to see Milky Way would be cool! I did some research and it seems it is possible to just drive a car to one of the famous spots like Cup Valley area, Mountain palm springs, and just park there and observe the stars. My question is, we were planning something like just driving our car to one of the spots around 12am at night after dinner, and say we observe stars for 2 hrs and start driving back around 2am to our house. Is this feasible in terms of driveable paths, night driving, etc. It's a very short and lazy plan compared to other folks in this group, but we just wanted a relatively lighter stargazing experience to start.

These stars may be young but they're mighty. 💪 This @NASAHubble image features a relatively rare celestial phenomenon, occuring when newly formed stars expel very narrow jets of rapidly moving ionized gas: https://t.co/eMNA1A5wHc https://t.co/VL2Nky3A36
