Offering a captivating journey through the cosmos, these sessions provide a unique opportunity for the community to explore the wonders of the night sky.
Observation sessions typically commence 30-45 minutes after dusk, allowing stargazers to marvel at celestial marvels as long as they wish. Please note that prior to complete darkness, access to the observatory is restricted as equipment setup and alignment with the stars are essential preparations.
