It’s International Observe the Moon Night! Weather permitting, gaze at the Moon through our telescopes and cozy up by a bonfire outside of the physics building for free. Inside, enjoy a planetarium show at 7 or 8 p.m. covering lunar exploration and personal and cultural connections to our closest celestial neighbor.

Gazing through telescopes is free; planetarium shows are $6 General Admission/$5 UWM Students.

The program will include an indoor stargazing session of the night sky followed by the opportunity to ask questions., This event is open to the public. Not recommended for children under four.

Register for tickets to the planetarium show here: https://uwmplanetarium.vbotickets.com/event/Observe_the_Moon_Night/162371
