DDO Mars Madness: The Red Planet at Opposition - January 2025

Important Notice: The Observatory Dome/74” telescope is currently undergoing restoration and will not be available for this program. Viewing of celestial objects will be provided using alternate telescopes set up outside (Weather Dependent).  Earth is catching up and will pass closest to Mars in January 2025 when the distance between the two planets is at its smallest, making Mars appear much larger when viewed through telescopes here on Earth. Join us at our Mars Madness event for a chance to see Mars at its very best.
