Monster Scope Night (Astronomy - Observatory Session)

See what's lurking in the dark with the Gravity Discovery Centre Observatory

Peer deep into the cosmos with some of the largest telescopes publicly available, including our impressive 65cm Brodie-Hall Telescope, 50cm Goto Dobsonian “Annie”, our 40cm Dobsonian “Hypatia” and special guest - a true “light-bucket” 56cm Dobsonian.

These giant apertures, along with our unparalleled clear, dark skies are sure to leave you breathless.....

Your ticket includes admission to the Gravity Discovery Day Centre for a self-guided tour.

Suitable for all ages.  Participants are reminded that they are responsible for their young children at all times. 

Our location can get particularly cold - so remember warm clothing.

We kindly insist that participants DO NOT USE any light emitting devices such as phones, watches, torches, light up attire.

If viewing through the telescopes is not possible due to substantial cloud cover/excess rain, an entertaining and informative session will be held in the GDC Theatre and a complimentary "Cloudy Night Pass" will be offered, enabling Tour members to repeat/reschedule the Observatory Tour.
