Astronomy Night: Stargazing
Join members of the Chesmont Astronomical Society for an evening of skywatching in one of the scenic open fields at Gwynedd Preserve. The event begins about an hour before sunset, creating a beautiful transition from golden hour into nightfall.
As darkness sets in, telescopes will be available to observe planets, stars, and deep-sky objects. With the Orionid Meteor Shower peaking just a few days earlier, participants may even catch some lingering meteors streaking across the sky.
Bring a blanket or chair, dress for cooler evening temps, and enjoy a relaxing evening under the stars.
Eager to get into the hobby of stargazing, but not sure where to begin? There are a limited number of spots available if you would like to bring your own scope for assistance from club members. Available for pre-assembled, visual telescopes ONLY.
Rain Date: October 26, 2025
This event is free, but registration is required to reserve your spot.
- $5 – Natural Lands member ticket
- $10 – non-members ticket
- $30 – event ticket and a year-long membership to Natural Lands
