The China Lake Astronomical Society is a place for people who want to learn about, participate in, and share astronomy activities and education

We are based in Ridgecrest and China Lake, California, in the Indian Wells Valley of the Mojave Desert. We are just over the mountains from Death Valley and some of the darkest skies in the United States.
