A telescope, distant galaxies, and marshmallow roasting by the fire under Angel Fire’s dark sky. Come explore planets, the moon, stars, and nebulae with us near the Boat House at Monte Verde Lake on select nights this season!
Amateur astronomer and astrophotographer Mike Hawkins will be on-site to operate the telescope, guide discussions, and answer questions. We’ll have fire pits set up and complimentary s’mores to enjoy!
Dress appropriately for the weather, as this event will be outdoors. Feel free to bring your chairs, blankets, and binoculars if you have them.
Please note: White-light flashlights and phone screens are discouraged, as they interfere with your and others’ night vision adjustment and enjoyment of the night sky.
*While we will make every attempt to keep the scheduled date and times for stargazing, we want to ensure that the sky will be visible through our telescope. If we determine that cloud cover or weather may impact the event, we will post the event as “canceled” here and on Instagram and Facebook.
