The observatory is staffed by members of the society who volunteer to conduct the regularly scheduled public procrams. In addition to operating the Foothill Observatory, the P.A.S. has its own observatory in the nearby Santa Cruz Mountains. This location has room for members to set up their own telescopes at our monthly star parties. The public is welcome to attend the meetings of the Peninsula Astronomical Society. There is no charge for attending these meetings.
Meeting is open to the public at no charge.
