Observatory Open House

Join us at the observatory on top of Thompson Physics (not the historic observatory along Rt 2) anytime between 8pm and 10pm on Wednesday February 1st. We will have telescopes open for viewing of a nearby comet (Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)) as well as other objects.

The observatory is located on the fourth floor of the Thompson Physics building, and is accessible from the eastern staircase (facing the parking lot next to the building). The elevator next to Eco Cafe can get you to the third floor, with one remaining flight of stairs up to the observatory. The event is weather permitting; check @williamsastronomy on Instagram for last minute updates. Contact Kevin Flaherty (kmf4) with any questions.
