Upcoming Astronomy Events

As a service to our community, Sky & Telescope lists astronomy-related events, including star parties, observatory public nights, astronomy talks, and more. Star parties offer dark skies and astronomical fellowship and often cater to families and feature special activities for kids. Public nights give the general public a chance to view the sky through large telescopes, and public talks are a great place to learn the fundamentals of the science and the craft.
You’ll also see online events offered here.
And if you’d like free copies of Sky & Telescope‘s Let’s Go Stargazing flyer or door prizes for your next star party, you can fill out this form.

Cosmic Coffee, Cup No. 35 | The Messier Marathon

March 4, 2021 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am MST

Join Lowell Observatory Director Dr. Jeff Hall as he speaks with Lowell Educators Jos Schindler, Ariel Daniel, Kendall Edwards, and Hannah Zigo about the Messier Marathon. We’ll chat about Charless Messier and his famous list of 110 deep-sky objects, plus how that list became the subject of a celestial “marathon” each year.

Cosmic Coffee explores a different topic in astronomy or planetary science each Thursday at 9 am AZ (MST).

You can find all of our Live-Streams and more on our YouTube channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4zmFY211sXfEamwmsJcrYA
