If it's warmer than 40ºF, drier than 80%, and clear enough to see stars, the dome at the Detroit Observatory in Ann Arbor will be open to the public. Don't miss a rare opportunity to look through a 19th century telescope.
This 19th century telescope is in a 19th century building, and you must be able to climb stairs to reach the dome.
Check the website or Facebook page after 5 PM if there's any doubt about the weather.
