October Public Viewing – Cancelled

UPDATE (Oct. 22): Due to the cloudy & rainy weather this evening, tonight’s viewing is cancelled. We will try to schedule another viewing for November and will post when the date is decided.

——————————————————————————————————————-

We will return to our observatory for this month’s public viewing on Thursday, October 22 from 7:00-9:00PM. Anyone attending the event should meet in Memorial Hall room 417 and we will direct you up to the observatory when there is room for visitors.

In the earlier part of the viewing the sky will not be completely dark, but we can view the ~70% illuminated Moon. So if you missed our Moon night, or you have young children who need to get home to bed, do come early on. Later in the viewing session, we may point the telescope at some other interesting objects.

This event, as always, is subject to the weather. If it has to be cancelled, notice will given here as well as through other communication means.
