Veen Observatory – August 2025

We went to the Veen Observatory near Lowell, Michigan for one of their public events where anyone can look through the telescopes. It was more busy than we expected for being out in the middle of nowhere. We enjoyed it.

Veen Observatory near Lowell, Michigan.

The Veen Observatory opens their doors to the public, so we went.

The observatory has two Ash Domes This one contains a 16-inch Schmidt Cassegrain. Whatever that is!

They worked for a while to get this telescope focused on the star cluster they wanted to see.
