"Love this place. Always learn something new everytime I come here."
"Fun, you learn a lot and you see some cool things. Unfortunately, there is a bit of light pollution from the city and college but you can't really fix that."
"Pretty cool, lots of fun. Wish there were more public events..."
"I had a great time!! I will definitely go back! Everyone was very friendly and helpful and there was a lot to see!!"
"The University of West Georgia is fortunate to have an observatory, but even more fortunate to have faculty in the sciences who hold a genuine interest. The observatory houses a 16" diameter reflecting telescope, so large enough for semi-professional observation but that an amateur can learn to use. The observatory serves as a public observation area during certain celestial events, and also as a place for students to gain hands-on learning in observable astronomy."
