• Deep Sky Observation

    Deep-sky object (DSO) is a term for any astronomical object that is not either a star or in our Solar System.

Deep Sky Observers Group

Want to discover galaxies, nebulae, globular clusters and other amazingly wondrous Deep Sky objects?
Come join us on one of our Deep Sky nights! We run once a month, moon and weather permitting. If you have a telescope capable of viewing these objects, bring it along. Otherwise, just bring yourself and take advantage of the wonderful range of MBO’s own telescopes.
