Who We Are
Astronomy in Michigan consists of astronomy enthusiasts from all walks of life. We are professional astronomers, museum professionals, amateur astronomers, teachers, and students.
The purpose of this site is to collect together in one place all of the resource someone might need to find their local public observatory, when an astronomy-themed exhibit will be on display at a museum or when the local astronomy club is hosting a star party.
This site is for you! So if you have any thoughts or suggestions on how we can improve it, please let us know.
