Observing at Mount Wilson
For an experience of a lifetime, view celestial objects through our historic 60-inch or 100-inch telescopes. These are the largest telescopes in the world that are available for public use.
60-inch Telescope
Mount Wilson’s 60-inch telescope provides incredible views of some of the most beautiful objects in the night sky and is among the largest in the world accessible to public viewing.
100-inch Telescope
The 100-inch telescope was used by many of the greatest astronomers of the Twentieth Century. Imagine looking through the telescope used by Edwin Hubble in the 1920s to measure the expansion of the Universe.
