Friday Night Observing
Observe some of the same celestial objects that have inspired sky-gazers throughout history!

The public viewing is scheduled every Friday during the University's Fall and Spring semesters. Spring 2025 events will run from January 24th to April 25th, except March 14th and March 21st. A presentation will be given at each event regardless of the weather, so we will always have something for you. Observing will follow the presentation if the weather is acceptable (clear with wind chill above -15° F). Click here for the schedule. For other questions, please email the outreach coordinator at [email protected].

The presentation begins at 8:00pm in the Tate Laboratory of Physics, room B50. After the presentation, we move up to Tate 510 where we can access the telescopes on the roof deck and the historic 10.5" refractor in the dome. Telescope observing usually begins around 8:30pm.
