Astronomy Tour

Overview

A tour for all ages just outside of Boulder (accessible by Taxi, Lyft & Uber). Tours start at sunset and last for 2 hours. The show will explore the night sky with several large telescopes and a laser pointer. We will see and learn about planets, constellations, navigation, satellites, nebula, clusters, galaxies, maybe some shooting stars, and our universe. Through telescopes we will get up close looks at these objects and take in their beauty with our own eyes. The tour takes place at a easy to find trailhead (no hiking required) where phenomenal sunsets and wildlife are often seen. Guests are provided with a red flashlight, comfy camp seating, bug spray, snacks, hot water, tea, instant coffee, hot chocolate, and cookies. Guests are encouraged to bring questions, wonderment, and warm clothing (it can get cool after sunset)

I only have casual interest in astronomy and only went to look at the sky for a little bit, but it was also a learning experience. Luke's very professional and I look forward to coming back again!

seeing the stars is truly wonderful! the host did a good job explaining where to look, what we were looking at, and what relevance it had. He was a wealth of knowledge and kept it entertaining for the full 2 hours. It was nice that he provided chairs and refreshments. I was able to use a telescope and to see Saturn’s rings!

It's not just looking at the universe! I came just to look in some telescopes and was blown back by what I learned! the navigation info is priceless. I haven't looked at the sky the same since! Luke gives knowledge, red flashlights, and provides a well stocked tea table with snacks, cookies, hot chocolate, coffee, hand warmers, bug spray, and more!
