NOTICE: There's no more Oct 11 event, but there IS an event TONIGHT! The Equinox Concert was delayed to tonight (Oct 4), so please come by the observatory tonight for a great jazz piano show and a planetarium sky show and, possibly, weather allowing, a glimpse through our telescopes! Thank you!

Open house this Friday with speaker Lydia Miller, teaching us about rotating stars! The weather's not looking great, but we'll be sure to give you a great astronomy talk and a great Valentine's Day themed sky show: Lovers in the Sky! Also, an UPDATE: We have fixed the audio issue in the planetarium + overflow room, so if you do end up in the overflow room, the audio should be much better now! :)
