The Black Rock Observatory serves as a gateway to the wonders of the cosmos. For years we have brought together thousands of participants to experience with views of planets, galaxies and nebulae, sharing meteorites, and giving talks on a multitude of scientific and artistic topics.
A beautiful wooden observatory dome houses an 8-foot tall Dobsonian reflector telescope, and several other smaller telescopes that participants can use to view the night sky.
Kids' Night at the Observatory is a particular favorite, where young burners go to get their universe on. Dozens of kids hear tales of the night sky and receive real meteorites!
