Observatory Park in Great Falls, VA is becoming a summer hit.  Public star gazing and telescope viewing of Venus, Mars and star clusters brought more that 290 visitors to the weekly Friday night event.  Sponsored by the Analemma Society with facilities from the Fairfax County Park Authority, the public has a free front row seat to observing the solar system and the universe beyond each clear weather Friday night.  No charge is made for these weekly events.  Inside the Roll-Top observatory we have four telescopes for viewing.  As seen in the photo below, we can roll out additional telescopes. If you intend to bring a large group to the Friday night events, please contact us ahead of time using the "Contact Analemma Society with a Question" on the left column of our Home Page.
