Observing & Presentations
The Observatory is open every Friday night, March through Mid-December, regardless of sky conditions. During the winter season, we only have public programs on selected dates. Due to changing seasonal sunsets times, the Observatory adjusts its program starting times. See Public Programs Seasonal Chart below for exact times.
Public Admission
$6.00 adults
$4.00 seniors/students
$20.00 family maximum
Group rate (10 or more): $4 adult, $3 senior/student

If the skies are not clear, you will receive a free pass to come back on another night – you just can’t lose coming to Kopernik on a Friday night.
