WSU Planetarium Open Night

Jewett Observatory on WSU campus holds public star parties, with any interested person can come see the stars in full view.  Most public evenings feature a crescent moon, star clusters, nebulae, double stars, and other surprises, but what is visible depends strongly on the weather. In 2021, Jupiter and Saturn are late-summer and fall objects, with Venus as an evening star.  All are welcome! There is no charge. Please dress warmly, even in summer. Clouds render all astronomical objects invisible, so do not come if you cannot see any stars out. We will also close if the air quality index exceeds 200: “very unhealthy.”
