Celestial Stakeout

Loines Observatory, 59 Milk St Ext, Nantucket, MA 02554, USA

Join the professional astronomers and staff of the MMA for a very special, early-morning Open Night at Loines Observatory. On July 29th we will catch the ‘5 planet alignment’ – a relatively rare opportunity to see all five planets visible to the naked eye – Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn – in line along the ecliptic. They’ll be joined by a beautiful crescent Moon in the early morning sky. As most of the planets will not be visible this summer during the evening hours, this is a great opportunity to catch a glimpse of these great planets through the MMA telescopes – a sight you will not soon forget!

Coffee, treats, and a special MMA blanket are included in the ticket price.

Make your reservation soon as tickets are limited to 50.

Tickets: $150
