Observatory Open House

Online you will see our Fall 2012 schedule of Open Houses. Note that green means we are open, red means closed due to weather, holiday, or conferences, and white means we haven't decided yet.

No reservations/registrations are required (though if you're bringing a big group, let us know). If you have any questions about Open House, send email to planets@physics.ucf.edu. Our 8" telescopes can show you plenty of astronomical objects.
