Observatory will be open tonight at 9:30pm

It is very cold out so chances our we won't be at the observatory to long.

We may only be there for a couple of hours.

Dress extremely warm if you come by to observe for a few minutes.

I recommend layers, long underwear, even snowmobile or ski pants, in cold weather. Hats, gloves etc.

Stop by and check out a cold view of the sky.

There is a full moon out tonight so that will obscure some viewing opportunities. We will look at Jupiter, the moon and other objects. M42 is out.

This is not a school club event for high school students. Those under 18 need to bring a parent.

We have a small radiant heater we sometimes turn on for guests but this can hurt the view so we like to keep it off as long as possible.
