That moment when you looked into the night sky and realized that bright light was a planet. When you peered through a telescope for the first time. That moment when you dove beneath the waves and touched something with your foot. Everyone has a Science Story.
View celestial objects in the night sky, including stars, planets, nebulae, and if conditions are right, a galaxy or two, from 5 different rooftop telescopes in the Observatory at our monthly astronomy event.
