Stars Above Aspen 2023
Aspen Center for Environmental Studies invites you to the top of Aspen Mountain for our annual Stars Above Aspen Astronomy Night on Tuesday, August 15 from 6-10pm! In partnership with Aspen Snowmass, explore the cosmos from 11,212 feet at the Sundeck at this all-ages event that’s sure to be out of this world.
The Silver Queen gondola will be open late for this special community astronomy night featuring the Fiske Planetarium MiniDome and meteorites, guided telescope stations, interactive presentations, legends and facts of the constellations, celestial crafts and games, a collaborative mural of the universe, physics experiments, and more.
The Sundeck Restaurant will be open for drinks and dinner. Guests should be prepared for evening mountain temperatures. A blanket for star-gazing and plenty of layers (including hats and gloves) are highly suggested.
The event is open to all ages.
