The Joseph R. Grundy Observatory provides exciting opportunities to explore the universe right on the F&M campus. The Grundy Observatory features an 1884 vintage 11-inch Alvan Clark refracting telescope and a 16-inch Boller & Chivens classical Cassegrain reflecting telescope. The Grundy Observatory sits on the corner of Baker Campus just off Harrisburg Pike, about half a mile north of the main campus. The observatory is also open for public observing the third Monday of each month all year, weather permitting.
