  • Learn how to use night vision goggles, lasers, and high-powered binoculars. We use military-grade night vision goggles that allow you to see the stars as if you've traveled back to a time with no light pollution - an experience less than 1% of people will ever have.
  • Use infrared binoculars and handheld thermal monoculars to see various forms of light, allowing you to view your surroundings as well as the stars in a unique way. These high-powered binoculars will be used to see the planets and nebulae in the sky, depending on the date, atmospheric conditions, and the time we conduct the tour.
