Join us at he Montgomery College Astronomical Observatory to view the next total lunar eclipse! Several telescopes will be set up and binoculars will be available.
Observatory Night for The Total Lunar Eclipse
9:30 PM Sunday 15 May - 12:30 AM Monday 16 May
Register for the event here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/total-lunar-eclipse-at-the-observatory-tickets-333056058637.
Some things to note:
- Dress for the weather. The observatory is located outside on the roof of the Science Center. It can get chilly up there, even during spring and summer evenings.
- We meet in Science Center room 406 (SC406). We go up to the roof as a group. If you're late, there will be a student in SC406 to escort you upstairs.
- Events will be cancelled for cloudy or bad weather. I will make the call as soon as I am able, usually about 2 hours prior to the event start time. An announcement will be sent to the email address you registered with Eventbrite and I will post the status on the observatory website.
- Children are welcome (and encouraged!) to attend, although campus policy prohibits children younger than five years of age on the roof.
- Parking is free.
- If you don't see a date on the drop-down menu above it's because we're booked. If you put yourself on the waitlist, you will be notified if someone cancels.
- If you register but can't attend, please cancel so that someone else may have your spot.
- Detailed directions can be found here.
