The clouds called dibs on the sky tonight, 4/15... Our observatory will be socked in, so the stars are taking a well-deserved night off! No worries — the universe will still be there next week. Come find us at our next WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party!

What causes earthquakes in the Eastern US — so far from any fault line? It's one of earth science's great mysteries, and Boston College's retired Prof. Alan Kafka has spent 42 years on the case. Join us at the Westport Observatory for this fascinating in-person lecture, also live on YouTube & Zoom. Don't miss it!
