Upcoming Events
Well we did it!! First Light through our new Telescope!
We are so thrilled (and honestly a little overwhelmed!) by the amazing turnout for our First Night Event. Seeing so many members of our community come out to engage and be excited about astronomy made the event truly special.
Thank you all for your enthusiasm, encouragement, and curiosity—the stars are there for everyone!.
As we continue to train more volunteer operators on our telescopes, we’re excited to offer more public stargazing nights in the future. These events will feature multiple telescopes viewing different celestial sights, along with informal constellation tours using our green laser pointers. We’ll also continue hosting our monthly planetarium shows.
We hope you’ll make this a regular destination and join us again soon as we explore the night sky together!
