The Nov. 16 program pairs a talk by Dr. Emilie Panek with rooftop views of the moon, planets and stars through the department’s 16-inch telescope.
All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
A talk in Gallalee Hall 227 comes before skywatching at the building’s rooftop observatory during the University of Alabama’s free Public Astronomy Observing Event. Dr. Chao-Chin Yang is named for the observing portion, which lists the moon, planets and stars as targets.
The format moves from a talk by Dr. Emilie Panek to observing with Dr. Chao-Chin Yang. The listing does not give Panek’s talk topic, so visitors can count on the sequence and presenters, but not a particular subject for the presentation.
Both parts fall within the 5:30–8 p.m. event window on Monday, Nov. 16. The listing gives no separate start times, making the full window the useful planning frame for anyone hoping to attend both.

The announced observing categories are the moon, planets and stars, viewed through the department’s rooftop 16-inch telescope. No individual celestial objects are specified, so the event promises a chance to look across those categories rather than a particular planet or star.
