Houston Astronomical Society

Houston Astronomical Society will gather at Memorial Park for good company and excellent stargazing! Meet us at the grassy fields and North Lakeside Pavilion of the Clay Family Eastern Glades to enjoy the night sky with telescopes, binoculars, and even the unaided eye in this peaceful area of the park.

H.A.S. volunteers love sharing views of planets, stars, and the Moon through their telescopes and binoculars. If you have a telescope or binoculars of your own, though, do feel free to bring them, even if you might need a little help to get started. We're having a star party, after all!

Upcoming Memorial Park events: February 15, March 15, April 19, May 17, June 21, and more through 2025

Date: Saturday, January 18, 2025

Time: 7 p.m. - 10 p.m. Central
