Stargazing

Join us at the Observatory as we gaze through telescopes at the night sky! Our free stargazing program offers an opportunity to all members of the public to view the moon, planets, and other astronomical objects throughout the year. Though free, donations are always appreciated.

Where: UWM Physics Building Observatory. Take the elevator at the east end of the Physics building to the 4th floor and make a left to climb the staircase that leads to the roof. Follow Observatory signs. **Note: The observatory is not wheelchair accessible.
