The Red Planet has long captured our imaginations. Dozens of spacecrafts, such as orbiters, landers, and rovers, have been explored Mars and returned volumes of data. Let’s use this data to explore Mars together!

Tour the solar system with the Fleet’s resident astronomer and connect with other skywatchers. Journey through the cosmos with us as we explore a new topic each month.

Presentations begin with a look at the sky followed by a special topic presentation.
Before or after Wednesday shows at the Fleet, join members of the San Diego Astronomy Association on the Prado by the Bea Evenson Fountain and be inspired by the stars in the actual night sky (weather permitting) through different telescopes.
