Wyoming Stargazing’s Large Group Event package brings you all the best of what we offer in one program for a group of any size. We excel at making the often difficult to understand concepts of astronomy accessible to everyone. With this program you’ll get to see planets, stars, star clusters, nebulae, galaxies, and more. You’ll also get answers to all your burning questions about the Universe, a new sense of your connection to the Cosmos, and an awe-inspiring stargazing program for all ages.
The program begins with your arrival at the stargazing location of your choice, with a customizable number of stargazing leaders and telescopes. Throughout the evening, they'll describe each of the incredible deep space objects in view, as well as explain how they fit into the story of existence. You and your guests will leave with a newfound understanding of the Universe and your connection to the Cosmos.
