Public Nights at the Observatory are back for the Summer and Fall! 

Join us Friday, October 10th from 9:30p - 11:30p to see all the wonders of the night sky using the Observatory's telescopes with the help of the Observatory's staff of astronomers! Learn about the Moon, the planets, stars, nebulae and galaxies and see them yourself through our telescopes. 

A few things to know: 

• Observing sessions require suitable sky conditions. To learn the status of any event, check the Observatory's home page orbeginning one hour before the event. Inclement weather or other unforeseen adverse circumstances may cause the cancellation of a scheduled event. Please arrive no later than one half hour before the scheduled end of the session.
• All sessions are free and open to the public. These events are family friendly, but best suited to children over the age of 5.
• Observing sessions are primarily held outdoors. Please dress appropriately for personal comfort during your visit.
• The Observatory is located on the main campus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn, in the Science Learning and Research Center (SLRC).
