Deets: Join the Gaithersburg Community Museum for a special evening under the stars as we participate in NASA’s International Observe the Moon Night. This global event invites people worldwide to observe and learn about the Moon together. Enjoy guided telescope viewing of the lunar surface, engage in hands-on activities, and learn about lunar science and exploration.

Hint for the Average Socialite: Registration is required.

Observatory Park will be dark, but please do not bring a bright flashlight; bring a red light as it will be less intrusive to other watchers. Adjust the brightness of electronic devices.

Feel free to bring a blanket or folding chair for your comfort and snacks to enjoy during the events. Portable bathrooms will be available. There is no running water in the park. Alcohol is not permitted at events in City parks.
