The Mammoth Cave event is on 9/19/25 (Friday) at 7pm. The Hilltopper Astronomy Club (HAC) will be working with Mammoth Cave National Park (MACA) to provide a night of stargazing, focusing primarily on the Saturn eclipse that will be happening later that night!
Come join us, 10/22 at 8pm, in the Kelly Thompson Hall first floor atrium to be whisked away for a night of stargazing! We'll be looking at Saturn with its disappearing rings, and even the Pleiades as they begin to rise in the Fall night sky.
Public Observing Night is finally here! Join us in the KTH Lobby at 8pm so you can be escorted to the Rooftop Observatory. (Side note: tonight is not to be confused with HAC’s Observation night on 9/21/23.)
Remember Public Observing Night here at the KTH Rooftop Observatory on 9/19/23! BE SURE to meet in the KTH Lobby for an escort up to the Observatory.
