The Westport Observatory, run by the volunteers of the Westport Astronomical Society brings the night sky down to the thousands who visit annually. We’re a non-profit that’s free and open to the public every Wednesday night from 8-10 pm if the skies are clear. We do suggest a donation of $5 per person if you're not a member. In-person or zoom lectures on the 3rd Tuesday monthly. #Astronomy #Observatory #WestportCT #WestportObservatory #nonprofit #astrophotography #WestportAstronomicalSociety

🚀 Heads up, Connecticut!
From Meteorologist Kevin Arnone: A SpaceX Falcon 9 is set to launch tonight at 7:34 PM, carrying another batch of Starlink satellites on a northeast trajectory. If all goes on time, the rocket’s bright exhaust plume should be visible from our area.
⏱ Look 4–8 minutes after launch
👀 Face the southeastern sky
🌤 Clear skies = best chance
Launches can slip, so timing matters.
