Members, which include Observatory Volunteers, are welcome to a members observing opportunity at Ryan Observatory. Membership should be current. It can be renewed on site if necessary via PayPal or personal check.
For members interested in volunteering this summer at the observatory, we will conduct a Dome 1 orientation at 8:45 PM. It will give you a good idea of what is involved if you want to operate an observatory for open houses. Other opportunities to get involved as an educator or general site assistant will be discussed.
Bring your own personal gear to observe.
A Rittenhouse Representative will be on site at Astronomical Twilight to turn of lighting for deep sky observation and photography.
