Tonight’s lesson: Great American eclipse

On August 21, 2017 the entire United States will experience a solar eclipse! Here in Schenectady we’ll see the sun 66% covered by our Moon. How can you safely observe the eclipse here in the Capital Region? Join us to find out!

Night Sky Adventures are astronomy fun for the whole family! Educators from the Dudley Observatory, in conjunction with volunteers from the Albany Area Amateur Astronomers group, present astronomy lessons, planetarium shows and night sky viewing (weather depending). Amateur astronomers and families are invited to bring binoculars or telescopes. One or more telescopes will be provided for public use.

Come early to enjoy the museum galleries as well as the Dudley Observatory program!
