Mingo Star Party
Come join the Amateur Astronomers Association of Pittsburgh for a night of looking at the stars through the observatory’s 10″ refractor telescope or 24″ Ritchey-Chrétien telescope. Visitors of all ages are welcome to tour the observatory, watch a planetarium show, or listen to presentations on a variety of astronomy related topics. There are also activities for children and many of our members set up their own personal scopes for additional viewing opportunities.
