Lowell Observatory tour for six

Item Number: NAU-041
Time Left: CLOSED

Description
Intrigued by the stars? Six people will go behind the scenes at Flagstaff’s Lowell Observatory, where Pluto was discovered, for a rare in-depth tour of the historic observatory site on Mars Hill in Flagstaff, AZ. Your personalized tour with a scientific staff member will take you to either the Anderson Mesa telescope sites or the in-development Discovery Channel Telescope. When completed, the $40 million Discovery Channel Telescope will be the fifth-largest telescope in the continental United States. You’ll dine in historic downtown Flagstaff at Cuvee 928, where enjoyment of fine wine and great food come together in a warm, comfortable atmosphere, then return to Mars Hill for an after-dinner reception with Lowell Observatory’s director Eileen Friel and a private viewing through the historic Clark 24-inch telescope.
Special Instructions
Limited handicapped access at the telescope sites.
