Astronomy is typically associated with expensive equipment and dark skies far away from the general public. However, at certain times and days of the year, the moon and many planets are readily visible and available for dramatic telescopic viewing, even under the lights of the city. LCAS provides the telescopes; you bring your family and friends.

Rugged craters, valleys and mountains as well as dry lunar seas, oceans and bays can be seen on the surface of the moon.

These events are free and suitable for all ages. There will be special surprises for the young 'future astronomers' who attend. No advanced registration is required.

These events are dependent on dry weather and acceptable sky conditions to allow viewing. All these events are subject to cancellation due to weather.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the LCAS at contact@lcas-astronomy.org
