This observatory offers so much more than simple sky viewing. When you visit, you can enjoy laser light shows at the planetarium, and educational content as the Golden Pond Planetarium is a NASA Educator Resource Center. In the Observatory you can look through the Meade 16-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, and Star Parties are held every weekend between Memorial Day and Labor Day. In fact, they host a lot of events so check their online calendar to pick the one that sounds most appealing to you.
