Wyoming Stargazing is an educational nonprofit in Jackson, Wyoming, now part of Teton Science Schools, that promotes science literacy through astronomy. Its summer STEM programs give students hands-on projects such as building telescopes, launching weather balloons with data-collection devices, and designing payloads and nanosats, alongside public stargazing and planetarium programs.

★★★★★Kayla JardineWe attended the free Thursday stargazing in Rendezvous Park and it was such a fantastic time! We learned so much and were so thankful we went. (The park is also beautiful to explore beforehand)
★★★★★Jaclyn KagiharaWe did a private stargazing tour in the Tetons with Mani and Kyle and it was the best experience of our trip to Jackson. The weather had been very overcast throughout the day, so we were worried we would not see anything but by a stroke of luck, we had a great window of pretty clear skies for our session. The stars are beautiful in Wyoming… the minimal light pollution and isolation in the National park makes the night sky breathtaking. My husband and I cannot give “Mani” and Kyle enough praise. Mani was a walking encyclopedia of everything astronomy. She could answer ANY question you had. She was also able to take high-level scientific information and “water it down” in a way the average person could understand. She was entertaining and engaging in her delivery…. For example, instead of always just telling us things, she would say things like “What shape this constellation remind you of? What planet do you think this is?” My husband and I just have so much respect for her wealth of knowledge. Mani was a literal genius and so impressive… What an amazing find she is for Wyoming Stargazing. Kyle was so awesome to be with too. He brought great energy and attitude as well. He made sure my husband and I felt comfortable throughout the night in the elements. He encouraged questions. He helped Mani control and reposition the telescope constantly… as stars move quickly! Safe to say, thanks to Mani and Kyle, we left our tour with a newfound appreciation for the stars. A must do experience for anyone visiting Jackson.
★★★★★SamanthaWe saw this experience on a map brochure and went for it without really knowing what we were getting into. WOW! An once in a lifetime experience. We were picked up by Ben (an astrophysicist!!!) for a night observing the stars. He made the information easy to personalized and easy to understand. We are so thankful we had the opportunity to see stars, galaxies, and nebulas etc. Shout out to Ben again!
★★★★★Marjorie KimMy husband and I had a wonderful private stargazing tour last night with Eons, an astrophysicist. She was informative, funny, enthusiastic and so passionate about the stars. Highly recommend! Definitely bundle for the cold, though blankets are provided.
★★★★★Robthe best star gazing experience. Sara, our leader, is a real astronomer and not a pedestrian simply following a script. she really educated us and got me excited to look at the skies at night. Sara was able to answer our questions of the celestial bodies with detail and in a fashion that we weren't lost in fancy lingo. it was also amazing to see so many stars. i was also very surprised at how many satellites you can see zipping across the sky. i highly recommend Wyoming Stargazing.
