Free Telescope Viewings | Chabot Space Museum

CHABOT SPACE and SCIENCE CENTER Oakland

Every Friday and Saturday Night, weather permitting at Chabot Observatory Deck

Join Chabot astronomers on the Observatory Deck for free telescope viewing!

Weather permitting, this is a chance to explore stars, planets, and more through Chabot’s historic telescopes. Chabot’s three large historic telescopes offer a unique way to experience the awe and wonder of the Universe. Our observatory deck offers breathtaking views 1,500 feet above the Bay. Three observatory domes house the Center’s 8-inch (Leah, 1883) and 20-inch (Rachel, 1916) refracting telescopes, along with a 36-inch reflecting telescope (Nellie, 2003).

Before your visit, check out the Weather Station to see the current conditions at Chabot.
