The Howell Observatory will be open on the dates shown below if the sky is at least 75% clear, the outside temperature is above 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and someone other than the operator shows up within 20 minutes of opening. The observatory will be opened 30 minutes past sunset on each of the days found below. There will be a brief sky orientation at the beginning of each session followed by observation of interesting celestial objects during that specific time. Questions on astronomy or astrophysics are welcome anytime during a session.

In case there is no convenient time shown in the schedule, you can arrange for group viewing by contacting Prof. Patrick Lestrade, email: lestrade@ra.msstate.edu, phone: (662) 325-2806.
