Super unique and fun experience in Joshua Tree! Our guides were knowledgeable and made this a great experience. We loved the set up and comfortable bean bags where we could sit and listen and gaze at the stars. Definitely recommend!

Our guides are experienced and knowledgeable and will take you on a journey through our sky. Learn to find north and the location of our seasonal triangles, constellations and planets. Using high-powered laser pointers, we will provide you an entertaining and scholastic experience, with stories about ancient civilizations, Greek mythology, and the evolution of the Cosmos. Our telescopes are operated with a keypad and are as easy to use as sending a text. Telescopes are pre-programmed with our object list for the night. Pressing one button on the keypad moves the telescope to the next object. We regularly view the following types and classes of objects: Galaxies, Nebulae, Star Clusters, Double and Binary Stars, Planets, Earth’s Moon, Globular Clusters, Comets, and more. Depending on timing, the International Space Station (ISS) and Starlink trains can be seen passing overhead.

The planet path to the stars was neat; The sky was beautiful from that location & they did an amazing job of pointing out the formations; loved that they thought of couches, blankets, hot chocolate & snacks. Highly recommend it!

Fantastic! Very knowledgeable guide who gave a lot of information about planets and stars in easy to understand way. The bean bag loungers were great. Was cold but we had wool blankets. They had over half dozen telescopes pointed at various stars and nebulae.. amazing! Drive there while still dusk.. makes it easier.. signs were good. Never seen so many stars in my life!!
