Fall Public Events Schedule Now Online

Observatory Night lectures will take place on the third Thursday of the month from September through November. We will also hold one on the first Thursday of December. These public talks feature a variety of astronomical topics that are timely and of general interest. As always, rooftop viewing will follow the talks when weather permits.

This fall begins with a very special program: a debate of the question "What is a planet, and does Pluto count?" Other fall topics include red dwarf worlds and mysterious X-rays from space. We will also host a weekend program on Saturday, October 4th.

Doors open at 7:00 pm. We will offer a short opening program at 7:10. The main presentation will begin at 7:30, as usual.
