Calling all summer residents of the Cambridge area! STAHR will be hosting Observatory Open Hours in the Loomis-Michael Observatory Saturday nights from 8pm to 11pm starting in July and running through August 3. Whether you’re a longtime STAHR member or have never set foot in an observatory before, we welcome you to join us for evenings of relaxed observing.
Dates and/or times may change due to weather considerations, but open hours will fall on a weekend night. Swipe access is not required to attend, and you will not gain swipe access by attending. We will be mostly focused on double stars and star clusters to begin, but will hope to catch Saturn once it starts rising earlier as the summer progresses. Once we iron out the last kinks in our methods, we’ll be happy to teach attendees how to use the setting circles!
