Please note that scattered showers and high humidity may force a last minute cancellation. Please check the weather forecast/radar yourself, and check the Detroit Observatory Facebook Event for last minute updates! Thank you for your understanding.
If it's warmer than 40ºF, drier than 80%, and clear enough to see something, the dome at the Detroit Observatory in Ann Arbor will be open to the public. Don't miss a rare opportunity to look through a Victorian era telescope.
This 19th century telescope is in a 19th century building, and you must be able to climb stairs to reach the dome with the telescope.
Get your free ticket to the dome at the door between 9 & 10 PM*.
Check the website http://lsa.umich.edu/astro/public-outreach/detroit-observatory-open-houses.html or Facebook Page (the regular feed, not this event feed) after 5 PM if there's any doubt about the weather. If Tuesday is poor, we’ll try again on Wednesday evening.
