Public Telescope Night – RSVP Here
International Observe the Moon Night.
We will offer a free planetarium show about Light Pollution during this event.
Sunset 6:56 pm; Gibbous Moon rises 5:25 pm; Jupiter not up; Saturn rises 6:43 pm; Venus sets 7:59 pm.
We will try to get a view of Saturn, if it is high enough above the trees.
Join us for stargazing at our public telescope nights. On a typical evening we will turn our large 12" diameter telescope toward the moon, planets, stars, space station, and other objects in the night sky.
This event is free and open to the public on scheduled Friday or Saturday evenings, weather permitting. Children are welcome, however they must be supervised by parents at all times. Optional: BYO binoculars, warm jacket, hand sanitizer, bug repellent.
If weather is dubious, you are welcome to give us a call before driving over to be sure we will be able to open.
Registration is recommended
