For many cultures across East Asia, family and friends come together for the mid-autumn Full Moon with festivities, delicious food, and good company. The Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies, U-M Astronomy, the Nam Center for Korean Studies, and the Center Japanese Studies invite you to the Judy & Stanley Frankel Detroit Observatory for a celebration of the Mid-Autumn Moon. The evening will include presentations from U-M Astronomy on Chinese lunar astronomy and exploration, a short musical performance, tours of the observatory, and telescope viewing of the Moon! Families are welcome!

All are welcome as walk-ins and no registration is required. Presentations start at 8PM and repeat at 9PM.

Telescope observing is weather dependent. Additional support by the U-M Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments.
