SkyWatch

Visitors are invited to come to SkyWatch at the Henry Buhl, Jr. Planetarium & Observatory and get up-close and personal with amazing celestial objects. SkyWatch happens rain or shine. 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. Come early, or come late, as your schedule permits.
