Stargazing at Willard Eccles Astronomy Observatory

Join us for a visit to the Willard Eccles Astronomy Observatory at the University of Utah for an opportunity to explore the night sky! The observatory hosts free public star parties on clear Wednesday evenings, welcoming visitors. Depending on the season and weather, we may observe planets, moons, stars, galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters through telescopes, with opportunities to ask questions and learn about the universe from observatory staff and volunteers. This is outside, so dress warm!
