KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — The Kalamazoo Astronomical Society is rounding out it’s season by inviting the public to two more observation sessions for October 2022.
The Owl Observatory is now featuring a 16-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope along with telescopes of all sizes set up near the observatory which is located on the grounds of the Kalamazoo Nature Center at 7000 North Westnedge Avenue.
Those unable to make the Saturday, October 15th session can attend the next one Saturday, October 29th.
Both sessions begin at 7 p.m. and are the final ones for 2022.
Staff will be on hand at the start of each session to conduct a Telescope Clinic to help beginners learn how to properly set-up and use their telescopes.
Each session also features a Constellation Workshop where attendees can learn to read a simple star map and find bright stars and constellations on their own. The workshop is then followed by a guided tour of the night sky.
