Join Goose Island and the Corpus Christi Astronomical Society for a night under the stars!
We will have telescopes provided by the Corpus Christi Astronomical Society set up to help you view the night sky as well as a tour of constellations led by Texas Master Naturalist, Chuck Blend. Keep your flashlights at home and bring a RED light instead. We'll have volunteers guiding you to park as we want headlights pointing AWAY from the telescopes. No registration required. This program is free with your park entrance permit.
If you are an astronomy enthusiast with your own telescope, please feel free to bring one with you! Please let us know if you plan on doing so by emailing
