Jupiter, the Perseus Double Cluster, and Orion under a wonderfully dark sky. Stellar Vista Observatory hosts monthly star parties that are free and open to the public. Our goal is to create opportunities for families, friends, and individuals to learn together and marvel at the beauty of the night sky. We always have telescopes and binoculars set up to help you get great views of the cosmos. If you own a telescope, feel free to arrive early and set it up. If you'd like to learn how to use your telescope more effectively, just let us know, and we will gladly assist you! Not sure what to bring to the star party? Check out our Frequently Asked Questions page. Events at the State Park carry a fee of $5/vehicle.
