Kennon Observatory, Oxford Campus
Open to the public

We are offering a viewing of the sky with our telescopes in Kennon Observatory on Apr. 14, Sunday night, 7:45-8:30 pm.

The Moon is always great; the planets are not visible this time. We’ll look at a number of double stars instead. (Jupiter and thee Orion nebula are possible, but only if the weather is extremely clear.)

The event is free, families are welcome.

Viewing is not possible when the sky is cloudy - if that happens we’ll have to cancel and ask everyone to come back in exact 4 weeks for another try.
