Description

Goldendale Observatory will host Friday movies, weekend programs
Free, family-friendly series runs November through March

Join Park Ranger Paul Tomas under the sun at the Goldendale Observatory where he will answer your deepest cosmic questions, dive into the depths of the cosmos, and explore our Solar System and chaotic celestial objects. Look through large telescopes, see lasers, and learn about other fun astronomy tools used to navigate the stars, galaxies, and supernovae. Interested in constellations? At this program you can explore the stars that shaped our history and created stories passed down through generations!

Every program is different in this series and is catered to the curious and imaginative. So, bring your deepest cosmic questions and explore the universe with us! 

NOTE: Discover Pass required.


Advance registration is required for both the movies and the interpretive programs. Admission is free, though a Discover Pass is required for parking.
This temporary, limited programming schedule is intended to provide more opportunities for visitors to enjoy the Observatory through the winter and spring while the agency works through staffing changes. It is not a new, permanent programming direction for the Observatory.
