Through our advanced facilities— and with the support of individuals from around the world— the Vatican Observatory explores the furthest reaches of God’s vast creation…the planets, stars and solar systems that reveal to us God’s unlimited majesty. By becoming a member of the Vatican Observatory Guild with an annual contribution of US $25 or more, you will support the important research, education and public awareness initiatives that are helping to increase our understanding of the wonder and beauty of the universe God has given us.
