December 14, 2026: Meteorite Night Registration

Join us at 5:00 PM on Monday, December 14, 2026, for our annual celebration of the 1807 fall of the Easton meteorite!

Celebrate and learn about the world-famous meteorite that was observed by Eastonites in the sky before it landed on farmland here on a winter night 219 years ago. The event is known as the first documented observation of space stuff landing in North America. Chunks of our town meteor (officially and misleadingly known as the Weston Meteorite) are held in collections around the world, from the Yale Peabody Museum to the Vatican Observatory in Italy.

We'll enjoy a presentation on the history by Frank Pagliaro, plus celestial canapes and beverages for the occasion. Event time 5:00 - 6:30 PM.

Seating and parking is limited. Reservation required!
