PUBLIC OBSERVING SESSIONS

There are two public observing sessions held each month at South Harrison Observatory -- an evening session around the first quarter of the moon and a daytime (solar astronomy) session around the third quarter of the moon. During these sessions a member of the observatory staff will be on-hand to show views through the telescopes and answer questions.

No public observations are held at Otter Creek.

Evening Programs: Join the observatory staff for a tour of what is visible in the night sky, including the moon, stars, and planets.

Daytime programs:  These are "open house" at the observatory. Come safely observe the Sun, with its prominences and sunspots.  Check out our telescopes and learn about the observatory -- after all, you can't really see what's in the observatory when it is dark.
