Astronomy April Fools

Apr. 4, 2024

Thursday / 7:00 PM

Event Details

The Detroit Observatory in Ann Arbor invites you out for a night of confusion and delight. To celebrate the many strange happenings throughout astronomical history, we will be presenting a series of short talks designed to test the limits of your history and astronomy knowledge. Each talk could be about something true, something wrong, or…something fake? Confused, yet? We certainly are!

Yes, we know April 4 is not actually on April Fools Day, but you’d be a fool not to check out these fantastic talks!

Talks will begin at 7PM and are followed by tours (these are true, we promise) of the historic observatory and telescope observing. Telescope observing depends on the weather.
