Join our Director of Astronomy for an exclusive viewing of the night sky through the 36″ Gueymard Research telescope. Mingle with other enthusiasts for this private 3 hour session, as we make our way through the cosmos. View galaxies, planetary nebulas or globular star clusters – you might see Jupiter’s Red Spot, Saturn’s Rings and craters on the moon. Visit the upper deck to learn about the mythology of constellations, and how to use your planisphere so you can find your way around the universe! Capacity: 15 participants, 16 years and up only. Gift bag, snacks, water and coffee are included.
