SUMMARY:Small Eyes Under the Skies
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Small Eyes Under the Skies at The Heide Observatory\, a family-friendly astronomy adventure that begins with an interactive walk through a scale model of our solar system across the meadow and concludes with a telescope viewing of planets and other celestial wonders. Events are weather permitting and will be rescheduled if cloud cover exceeds 40%; look for a confirmation email at least 24 hours before the event. For group or family rate discounts\, contact observatory@hawthornhollow.org\, and please dress appropriately for an outdoor trek through the “solar system” field.

SUMMARY:Comet Watch: C/2025 R3 (PANSTARRS)
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Heide Observatory for a Comet Watch as we observe Comet C/2025 R3 (PANSTARRS)\, a distant icy visitor from the outer solar system making a rare pass through the inner night sky. During this guided observing session\, guests will learn what comets are made of\, where they come from\, and why their brightness and visibility can change rapidly from night to night. \nTo maximize our viewing opportunity\, we will take a short guided walk to the upper prairie\, where we will watch for the comet low in the western sky shortly after sunset as it sets. This portion of the event will focus on naked-eye and binocular-style observing\, as the comet’s low altitude and wide field make it better suited to broad sky viewing rather than high-magnification telescope use. Binoculars will be available to help improve our chances of spotting the comet\, and we will guide guests on exactly where to look along the horizon. \nAfter the comet sets\, guests will return to the observatory for views through our 17-inch telescope\, exploring some of the best deep-sky objects visible that evening and enjoying a guided tour of the stars overhead. \nBecause comets are dynamic and unpredictable\, the exact appearance of C/2025 R3 may evolve leading up to the event\, making each viewing a unique snapshot in time of an object billions of years old. \n\n🔔 Important Event Information — Evening Event (Spring/Fall Seasons) \nWeather-Dependent Event: This program requires clear skies. If cloud cover greater than 40% is forecast\, the event will be canceled or rescheduled. Notification will be sent by email no later than 24 hours before the scheduled start time. \nEmail Communication Is Critical: All event updates\, including weather cancellations or schedule changes are sent to the email address used at ticket checkout. Please ensure your email is entered correctly and check spam or promotions folders. If tickets were purchased using an email you do not regularly monitor\, you may miss important updates. \nComfort Reminder: This is an outdoor observing event\, and guests are encouraged to bring a blanket and/or warm clothing for comfort during viewing. \nQuestions?
