More about our club: We own and operate our own observatory SW of Tulsa near Mounds, OK where the skies are much darker than in town. Beginning in September we will have our monthly club meetings at the Tulsa Air & Space Museum and Planetarium, the public and non-member are always welcome. A downloadable/printable club brochure may be found HERE:We also publish monthly newsletters, here is our current November 2026 Newsletter Our previously published newsletters are archived under the ABOUT/NEWSLETTER menu at the top of the page. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to find more astronomy related posts shared from other sources, plus any special announcements. See our events section for the latest meeting schedule and agenda. The Astronomy Club of Tulsa and its members would like to invite you to the darker skies at our observatory or one of our other scheduled public outreach events.
