Westport Observatory Director BOB MEADOWS optimistically believes there's a chance we could see some stars tonight 3/4, so the WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party is back on! If you see clouds at your home, it's best to find another activity. https://was-ct.org/programs/public-viewing/ #WestportObservatory #StarParty

🌥️ Star Party Update – March 4th The Westport Observatory is socked in with clouds again tonight, so we're calling off this week's WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party. Mother Nature had other plans! We hope the skies cooperate next week — clear skies and great views are worth the wait. See you next Wednesday! https://was-ct.org/ #WestportObservatory #WAS #StarParty #Astronomy #CloudedOut #ClearSkies #Stargazing #AmateurAstronomy #WestportCT #WeeklyStarParty

Snow, snow… and yep, more snow. We finally dug out from the latest “Storm of the Century (This Week Edition)” just in time for another coating. Add clouds tonight and that’s a wrap. The Westport Observatory is closed this evening, 2/25, for the WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party. Let’s try this again next week. https://was-ct.org/ #WestportObservatory #WAS #StarParty #WestportCT #CloudedOut #Astronomy #ConnecticutSky

This Week’s Sky at a Glance (Feb 20–March 1) Forecast for us in New England: mostly “meh.” Clouds rule the week, but if you catch a break, look up. Jupiter is blazing high after sunset. Saturn lingers low in the dawn. Orion dominates the evening with Taurus and the Pleiades nearby. Late winter skies are prime deep-sky season—grab it if you can. 👉 https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-news/observing-news/this-weeks-sky-at-a-glance-february-20-march-1/ #Astronomy #NightSky #Jupiter #SkyandTelescope #Saturn #Orion #WestportObservatory #Stargazing

Live at the Westport Observatory Tonight – 2/17! We’re welcoming Columbia University astrophysicist Yue Yu to the WAS classroom for a deep dive into frontier physics and the big questions still haunting the universe. Dark matter, next-gen experiments, and the kind of science that keeps theorists up at night. 👉 https://was-ct.org/events/yue-yu/ #Astronomy #SpaceScience #WAS #WestportObservatory #WestportAstronomicalSociety #ScienceLecture #DarkMatter #Physics #Columbia #IAXO

Some passing clouds, but we’re on for tonight’s WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party (2/11)! 🌌 We open after 8pm. No Moon = prime deep-sky hunting. Great views of Jupiter and Uranus in the scopes. https://was-ct.org/programs/public-viewing/ #WestportAstronomicalSociety #WestportCT #WestportObservatory #StarParty #Jupiter #Uranus #DeepSky
