Start off with a 2 hour astronomy tour and then come back for several more visits to conduct your own advanced astronomy studies and digital photographic astronomy projects.  This includes all our astronomy project packages such as asteroid rotation and variable star studies.  See the astronomy projects page for more details.

Availability and pricing are worked out per project. Call 207-619-2293 to discuss one.
