Visit us on Friday nights!

The Cornell Astronomical Society (CAS) runs the public viewing nights at the Fuertes Observatory. We are typically open every clear Friday night during the semester from 8:00 PM untill midnight, if sky conditions permit. On occasion we may open early. To find out if the observatory is currently open, call (607) 255-3557 for the prerecorded message. Check our observing page for the latest forecast and a list of likely targets.

Announcements of special observing sessions and other CAS events will be posted on the CAS announcement mailing list. To subscribe, send an email to lyris@cornell.edu with an empty subject and the following line in the message body (all text must be plain text, and yes you must include the quotes):

Visits

Group observing sessions and educational visits can be arranged on non-Fridays and any night when the observatory is not reserved for introductory astronomy classes. Scheduling of events is subject to availability of Cornell Astronomical Society officers who are mostly undergraduate and graduate students. If you're interested, contact Kim.
