A View to the Stars November 21, 2010

Since 1883, countless visitors have gazed through the Chabot telescopes at the wonders of the night sky. 'Chabot Observatories: A View to the Stars' explores the history of the Chabot Observatories and how its historic telescopes continue to be used today. Daytime visitors can virtually operate a telescope, experiment with mirrors and lenses to understand how telescopes create images of distant objects, and travel though more than a century of Chabot's history via multimedia kiosks, historical images and artifact displays.
