Sharing the night sky is one of our core purposes. For over 50 years, MPAS members have brought astronomy to the people of the Mornington Peninsula and beyond — to the public, to schools, to Scouts and Guides, and to community events of all kinds.
Whoever you are, there’s a way to look through our telescopes. Choose the option that suits you below.
Public stargazing nights
Monthly public viewing nights at the Mt Martha Observatory — book a place and look through the telescopes.
Schools
STEM stargazing nights and talks for school groups of all year levels, as an excursion or an incursion.
Scouts & Guides
Astronomy nights for Scouts, Cubs and Guides, tailored to the Astronomy and Space badge.
Community events
Star parties, public displays and talks for festivals, libraries and community groups across the region.
