Our stargazing experience nights are run by astronomer Eduardo Baldaci. Baldaci has more than 35 years experience observing the night sky. If you’d like a private star party in your back garden, a stargazing tour for your birthday or wedding guests, or a whirlwind visit to some of the best sights in the night sky for a special event or school stargazing experience, Baldaci is your Astronomer for Hire!
FORMAT FOR OUR STARGAZING EXPERIENCE NIGHTS
Experience the wonders of our Universe from any location in Central Florida´s cities. We bring a telescope and our stargazing knowledge to you. Enjoy the night sky like never before from your countryside, town or city garden location. No sky is too light polluted for us to deliver our stargazing tours! Your stargazing experience will normally begin with a laser-guided tour of the stars and the constellations that we can see in the night sky on your chosen date. We will then use one of our large telescopes to take you out on a journey across the universe. Along the way you’ll be able to view star systems, star clusters, nebulae and galaxies far beyond our own in the telescope, while our astronomer gives you the background story to each view. If the moon and / or planets are visible at the time then we’ll visit them too with the telescope.
Suitability: Our Stargazing Experience Nights are suitable for individuals, couples, families, organisations and small groups throughout Central Florida´s Cities.
CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 16 MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A RESPONSIBLE ADULT.
Stargazing Experience Duration: We offer a choice of 1-hour, 2-hour and 3-hour stargazing experiences. Start times are flexible during the autumn, winter and spring. Summer stargazing can start no earlier than 10pm owing to the lingering summer twilight
