*The event has already taken place on this date: Fri, 08/28/2020
Welcome to the Frosty Drew Observatory Summer Stargazing Nights! Every Friday night (weather permitting), August 14-28, 2020 we open our Observatory, Sky Theatre, and telescopes to the skies and offer free stargazing and astronomy to anybody interested in observing with us. Tonight we will host a limited stargazing experience as part of our reopening plan. During this time of the year we usually open at 6:00 pm with solar observing. Celebrating views of the solar chromosphere and photosphere. Once the Sun sets, we switch over to the beautiful night sky over the observatory. Tonight’s event will not include our solar observing event and will, instead start at 8:00 pm and end at 11:00 pm. We will have telescopes setup in the observatory courtyard showcasing nebulae, star clusters, binary stars, the Moon, and eventually Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars. The primary observatory 16” telescope will be open and will service one visitor at a time.
