SkyWatch

The evening begins with a virtual tour of the night sky in Buhl Planetarium. Afterward, visitors are welcome to enjoy additional planetarium programs, and if the skies are clear, head up to the observatory! Spot Saturn's rings or details on the lunar surface through a 16-inch Meade LX200 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, and chat with a team of expert stargazers.

On evenings that SkyWatch is presented, the program is offered twice, once at 8 p.m. and again at 10 p.m. Come early, or come late, as your schedule permits.

Are you an astronomy expert? Bring your own (fully assembled) telescope to share with others, and visit SkyWatch for free!

Cost: $4 for non-members / $2 for members and as an add-on to general admission.

Meet in the first floor of Carnegie Science Center. A guide will lead you to the second-floor Buhl Planetarium, to start the evening with a virtual tour of the night sky.
