Hidden Spaces Tour

For the adventurous who don’t mind climbing winding staircases, ducking pipes, and exploring small spaces where astronomers work, this behind-the-scenes tour is your ticket! This is not for kids under 15 or for anyone concerned with physical demands. Not wheelchair accessible. 1hr 45mins.

$79 for adults. Kids ages 14-18 are $49. Friday mornings only. This is the only tour where you get to see the world’s largest indoor elevator in action, go into the astronomy plate vaults, enter a reflector telescope dome,  walk through the semi-subterranean machine shop and darkrooms, and visit more peculiar places. This tour typically happens only once per week on Friday mornings.
