Stars & Galaxies @ Chimney Rock National Monument

Chimney Rock National Monument

Archaeological site
3179 CO-151
Chimney Rock, Colorado


The Stars and Galaxies Program is offered on a select Friday each month when the earth is closest to the New Moon. When a “New Moon” occurs, the night sky is at its darkest, highlighting thousands of stars against the vast blackness of space – a unique experience here at Chimney Rock, isolated from the artificial lights of modern-day civilization. A video presentation, “Tour of the Night Sky”, will facilitate identification of constellations, bright stars, and other objects of interest; to be followed by a presentation explaining the significance of the night sky to the Ancestral Puebloans. This special sky opportunity affords an exclusive view of heavenly bodies from a place where the Ancestral Puebloans lived and observed and studied the celestial skies daily over 1,000 years ago. Telescopes will be utilized to observe several different sky objects in our Milky Way Galaxy, which looks to the naked eye like a dense low cloud. In actuality, it is millions of light years away and contains billions of stars. $20, adults (13 and older), $10 for children (ages 5-12). Check-in: 7:30-8:15pm. Program: 8:30-10:30pm. Tickets and more info at https://www.recreation.gov/ticket/facility/234787
