Take a look through our telescopes while you’re out exploring Washington, DC. Join us outside the Museum at the corner of Independence Ave and 7th Street SW, near the silver Delta Solar sculpture, and see the wonders of the night sky.
Experienced people will help you to use different telescopes to observe a variety of things, including planets, stars, and the Moon.
Telescopes will be provided by Smithsonian and pre-approved members of local astronomy clubs. No other personal telescopes are permitted at the event.
This program coincides with an event inside the Museum: AirSpace Live! Star Trek at 60. Separate reservations are needed in order to attend the indoor event.
Sponsored by the Thomas W. Haas Foundation, Otto Haas Charitable Trust, The Waterman Trust, and Wyncote Foundation.
