Star Parties

Astronomical star parties are gatherings where seasoned space enthusiasts or wide-eyed beginners come together to observe celestial objects such as stars, planets, and galaxies. Telescopes are provided by Space For Us, however, participants are encouraged to bring telescopes and share their knowledge, fostering a communal atmosphere for stargazing and astronomical appreciation.

​​Star parties are more than just stargazing; they can be transformative experiences that ignite a cosmic perspective within every participant. This cosmic perspective is a profound overview of our place in the vast expanse of the universe. 

Like astronauts experience the awe-inspiring "overview effect" from space, star parties provide an Earth-bound glimpse of this transformative phenomenon. We hope each participant departs from a star party with us or elsewhere with a renewed dedication to nurturing our collective home and a deep appreciation for our interconnectedness and the importance of preserving the sanctity of the night sky.
