A local amateur astronomy group hosts free public observing sessions at a dark-sky park in San Juan Capistrano.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-14 issue.

Field notes

The group’s observing sessions use both conventional telescopes and smart-telescope cameras that display live views on tablets, giving visitors different ways to see distant objects. Sessions are held at the Nature Center in Ronald W. Caspers Wilderness Park, a location the site identifies as California’s first Star Park, designated in 2013. The organization traces its start to April 1996 and says most sessions are scheduled when the moon is not visible.
