Everyone will be riding the bus to the SFA Observatory from the computer bus stop behind the math building and library. 
 
The bus will leave promptly from the bus stop so you should plan to arrive 15 minutes early.
 
 
 
Although you will not need driving directions, the video below shows you where we are going.
