Do you ever look up at the night sky and wonder what you're seeing? We're here to help! Come stargaze with us outside the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia.

Join Museum staff and members of the Northern Virginia Astronomy Club for an evening of stargazing. We provide the telescopes, you bring the curiosity! Experienced people will help you to observe a variety of things, including planets, stars, and the Moon.
