Awesome place to see the stars !! Oldest public observatory in America and the small history museum is extremely interesting! Loved looking through the old telescope which is open to the public on certain nights.

My partner and I attended the sweetest day event. The history behind the observatory and how the staff incorporated love into the theme was awesome. We had a blast and even saw Saturn and Neptune.

We enjoyed the kids night program at the Cincinnati Observatory. This was the second time we attended the family friendly evening program. I purchased the tickets ahead of time on the Cincinnati Observatory website. The program included a pizza dinner. The activity was based on Mars Rover robots. We had a kid friendly presentation on the Robots and launch process from Earth with a focus on young engineering skills. It was appropriate for kids and questions were encouraged. Then everyone got a little robot to practice setting up codes with provided magnetic tiles with instructions. It was a fun activity and the kids didn't want to stop.
