Kitt Peak Observatory is a world-renowned research facility located in a remote stretch of desert just outside of Tucson, Arizona. The observatory features an array of state-of-the-art telescopes and cutting-edge instruments, all designed to observe the night sky with incredible precision. This makes Kitt Peak a top choice for astronomers around the globe, who come here to study everything from distant galaxies to barely detectable asteroids.
The Observatory was closed to the public as of 2022 due to the pandemic. They continue to offer many classes free to the public in a virtual setting.
