Branched Oak Observatory is Nebraska's Window to the Universe. Visitors have the opportunity to see Galaxies, Nebulae, and Star Clusters through powerful telescopes, explore unique exhibits and attend fascinating live programs given by professional astronomy educators. Our mission is to inspire the public about the night sky and to encourage the next generation of professional astronomers, scientists, and engineers.
We need your help to grow! - Building a new Multi-Purpose Center
This season we are fundraising for a new Multi-Purpose Center. This building will accompany our current Visitor's Center and Library, and will not only provide much-needed modern bathrooms for the sky-park, but will also house a multi-purpose room that can be used for new exhibits, science demonstrations, and even sleeping quarters for overnight summer camps.
Thank you so much for your support today and for your support over the last seven years. We simply could not do what we do without YOU!
Be sure to check out our website at www.branchedoakobservatory.com and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/branchedoakobservatory for further information and for a schedule of upcoming General Public events. We look forward to helping you explore Nebraska's beautiful night skies!

A love for the night sky and a passion for teaching, brought two former science museum employees together to create Branched Oak Observatory. Now, a sprawling facility run by a dozen professional educators and astronomy enthusiasts, Branched Oak Observatory opens its doors and skies to the greater Lincoln community.
With your help, Branched Oak Observatory can continue to be the premier destination for astronomy education in the state. Your donation will allow us to provide learning opportunities for Nebraska K-12 students and encourage the next generation of astronomers, scientists, and engineers.
