No Public Observing tonight (3/23/23)

Unfortunately, it does not look like the skies are going to clear up so we will not hold public observing tonight. We will try again next week on Thursday, March 30th at 8 pm. Make sure to check back here beforehand around ~6 pm OR check out the Clear Sky Chart for Stickney Observatory to see if the weather is cooperating!

Spring Public Nights start this week!

Public Observing resumes for the Spring term this week. We will observe every clear Thursday, starting this Thursday, March 23 at 8pm. As the spring goes on, observing will start later to accommodate the later sunset times (see schedule here). As always, we only observe when the weather is clear.

Observing to resume in the Spring Term

The observatory is closed to the public during Bennington’s Field Work Term. Public observing will resume once our Spring term starts, likely in late February or early March. Information will be posted here once observing resumes!
