Approximately 600 astronomers from around the world gather to view southern constellations, comets and stars in the Lower Keys’ clear night skies — virtually the only place in the continental U.S. where they can be viewed. Lectures, programs and workshops round out the event.

The 28th Annual Winter Star Party is scheduled for February 20 – 26, 2012 on “Scout Key” in the Florida Keys. Astrophotographers and amateur astronomers often bring their families from across the U.S. and around the globe to make it a truly international event. Southern winter skies are a real treat for our Canadian and northern friends!
This special 6 day long “Stellar Star Party” includes vendors promoting their latest products for amateur astronomy, nationally recognized guest speakers, a popular “Kids Kamp”, mirror-grinding lessons, the ever popular door prize giveaway on Friday afternoon and much more!
