Our Department resides in the beautiful and historic Whitin Observatory, situated on the eastern side of Wellesley College's campus. Our students and faculty use our two Alvan Clark refractors (12" and 6") and our 0.7m PlaneWave reflector for laboratories and research, alongside a fleet of smaller telescopes. We offer a variety of classes and are proud to host monthly Whitin Nights to introduce ou

r community to our beautiful home and our beautiful night sky. Cloudy or clear, there is always something to learn about astronomy.
