Our NEXT SPECIAL EVENT... May 15, 2022 Lunar Eclipse!
Join the Dark Rangers for a conveniently timed (9pm-midnight) Lunar Eclipse. During a lunar eclipse you get the rare treat of seeing the extremes in the same night. Our Moon is the closest (1.2 light-seconds away) and one of the smallest things we can show in our telescopes. AND when our Moon goes dark our telescopes can reveal the largest & farthest objects, great galaxies, millions of light years distant.
For these 1 NIGHT ONLY Special Events, our refund policy must be less generous. After clicking Book Now button read top of page for specifics.
