Come to Foothill Observatory and join us in the exploration of our Universe! Foothill Observatory Friday Evening Program @ Foothill College Observatory9:00 pm – 11:00 pm
Come to Foothill Observatory and join us in the exploration of our Universe!
Foothill Observatory is open for public viewing every clear Friday evening from 9:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. Visitors can view the wonders of the universe through the observatory’s new computer-controlled 16-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. Views of objects in our solar system may include craters and mountains on the moon, the moons and cloud-bands of Jupiter, the rings of Saturn, etc. The choice of targets for any evening’s viewing depends on the season and what objects are currently in the sky.
On clear, dark, moonless nights, the telescopes give visitors views into the deeper reaches of space. Star clusters, nebulae, and distant galaxies provide dramatic demonstrations of the vastness of the cosmos.
Confirm before you go that the observatory will be open!
The public viewing programs at Foothill are free of charge and are open to guests of all ages. Please note that the observatory is closed when the weather is cloudy. Also note that visitor parking permits are available from the machines in the parking lots for $3.00.
The observatory is next to parking lot 4.

NEON Citizen Science Academy (all-day) @ OnlineSep 17 – Oct 16
Would you like your learners to become Citizen Scientists and learn about phenology and climate issues?
The NEON Citizen Science Academy offers online courses for K-12 Formal and Informal educators wanting to incorporate citizen science into their educational programs. Each course is completely online and generally take 10-30 hours to complete.
“Intro to Project BudBurst for Educators” provides an overview to support implementation of Project BudBurst in a variety of educational venues. This course is offered in two sessions: CSA 501 was developed for educators in formal education settings such as K-12 classrooms and community colleges; CSA 551 was developed for educators in informal education settings such as botanic gardens, nature preserves, and science museums.
“Using Project BudBurst Data in an Educational Setting” is the follow-up course in which educators learn how to use the new National Geographic Field Scope tools to visualize and analyze Project BudBurst data through a user-friendly, web-based interface. This course is offered as one combined section that considers both formal and informal educational objectives.
For those interested in teacher re-certification, all of our courses can be taken for two optional graduate-level continuing education credits from Colorado School of Mines. For more information, please read our FAQ page at http://citizenscienceacademy.org/FAQ.
Registration is open NOW for the Summer and Fall Sessions. Each course is limited to 50 participants.
June 25 – July 31
* Introduction to Project BudBurst for Educators
* Using Project BudBurst Data in an Educational Setting
