March Madness Star Party

Telescope
March 23, 2019
8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Smith Lab Observatory - Roof access through the planetarium Smith 5033

We are looking at having our first star-party of 2019 on Saturday, March 23. This is weather dependent and updates will be posted here.

Auroral Update

We will not be able to see the Aurora from the roof of Smith Lab unless the display REALLY explodes in brightness, however, we will be able to see the auroral glow from central Ohio if you are willing to get out of town. The Auroral Forecast includes Ohio Friday night and Saturday Night. If its clear take a look. 

Star parties organized by the Astronomical Society at Ohio State

Weather Update

Weather looks good. See you tonight starting at around sunset so around 8pm. We will be on the Roof of Smith Lab.

Parking

The boys state basketball is happening. Surface lots around The Shoe and the garages on the academic campus are operating as usual. Anytime you have your parking hangtag you can park in any of the lots. Just be wary of extra traffic. Mens NCAA basketball is downtown at Nationwide but may also affect traffic patterns.
