Come out and observe Jupiter, Saturn and Mars this weekend at Fox Park Observatory! The Planets are putting on quite a show as Jupiter and Saturn move closer and Mars rises higher each night and joins the chase across the sky.
Many other deep space objects will be hunted down including star clusters, planetary nebula and beautiful double stars!
We will be open this weekend Friday and Saturday nights Sept 11-12.
Please wear a mask if you plan on coming into the observatory and using the telescopes, we will keep family groups together while using the telescopes and wipe down the scopes between family groups. Please social distance when not actively viewing through a scope.
Feel free to bring your own telescope to setup outside on the lawn, and if you need assistance with your telescope we can help you get setup and observing.
Address is:
3979 E Gresham Highway Potterville, MI 48876 (517) 645-6666
It uses a 130mm dobsonian telescopes reviewed on dopeguides which is very refined and when in sync with its aperture, it results in a fairly sufficient amount of light transmission where this is as at par with many zhumell heavy-duty tripod models.
