Statewide Astronomy Night at Stargate Observatory

Join the Warren Astronomical Society (WAS) for an open house for Statewide Astronomy Night on April 12 starting at 7 p.m. Depending on weather conditions, we plan to use the 8-inch refractor at Stargate Observatory under a 10-foot dome. We also plan to use the 22-inch Dobsonian reflector in the open field next to the observatory. There are a few more telescopes we can use depending on attendance. WAS is one of Michigan's oldest and largest amateur astronomy groups. Our diverse membership includes all age groups, interests, and experience levels.
