Directions to the Department

666, West Hancock St.
Detroit, MI 48201


The Planetarium is in another building. Please gather in first floor lobby to be escorted to the Planetarium.


Solar viewing depends on the weather. Access to the roof is via a stairway on the 3rd Floor. If the weather is poor then the internet can be used to access telescopes where the weather is good. Inquire in the first floor lobby to find which activity is taking place. Weather conditions can change over the course of the day.

If you have any questions, please contact Prof. David Cinabro: cinabro(at)physics.wayne.edu
