Frequently Asked Questions

What Are The Benefits Of Stargazing At Sea Level?

Being up high is not necessary for excellent stargazing. To begin, there is more oxygen at sea level than there is at a higher altitude, and eyes need oxygen to metabolize rhodopsin and be able to see. Secondly, it's not as cold at sea level, letting us enjoy the night with a true Hawaiian feel.
What Happens If There Are Clouds On The Day Of My Activity & Event Itineraryd Show?

Sadly, we have to work around what Mother Nature decides to do on each day. If the weather does not seem to be complying by 5 p.m., we cancel the day's session. On those occasions, we will send you an email and/or text to confirm the cancellation. However, if we feel that the sky could clear up by 7 p.m., we proceed with the show and hope for the best.
What Kind Of Objects Will We Be Able To See?

While our view of the sky changes throughout the year, there are certain key objects we should be able to see. Some favorites include Saturn's Rings and the Milky Way.
