View the Maunakea night sky from the comfort of the ‘Imiloa planetarium in a guided tour of the night sky.

Stargazing LIVE @ ‘Imiloa

View the cold, clear Maunakea night sky from the comfort of the ‘Imiloa planetarium. Join us on a journey to explore the stars and celestial objects from the 9,000 foot-level in real time!

Each month’s program will focus on celestial objects seen in that season’s sky. For instance, in the winter skies in Hawai‘i we will look at the Orion Nebula, Pleiades, and put them in contexts with Hawaiian traditions. 

A VIS staff member will orient the program’s participants to the night’s sky via a live feed, as well as introduce the instruments and techniques used to view a deep space object. In turn, the 'Imiloa planetarium operator will then take the audience to those objects for a more in-depth look.

Happens on the last Saturday of each month. Ticket pricing applies. Schedule is subject to change. Please visit the ‘Imiloa website for details.
