The Georgetown University Astronomical Society hosts meetings at the observatory every Tuesday night from 8-10pm in the observatory. These meetings are open to the public.

Directions to the observatory from campus:

• Walk towards the Hariri Building (business school) on the north side of Cooper Field.
• Continue toward West Road and Yates Field House. Cross West Road and climb the stairs toward Yates.
• Continue through the parking lot past Yates.
• Follow the red brick path around the right side of the observatory. Go in the white door on the left and ring the doorbell. The door will be locked and it may be dark if we are using the telescopes. Someone will come let you in.
