There are professional research observatories open to the public across the United States. Many of these offer public tours, star parties, classes, lectures, and educational movies about astronomy. Lick Observatory, the oldest continually operated professional observatory in the world, lies just east of San Jose, California. It is home to planet searches and offers special summer evening programs. McDonald Observatory, near Fort Davis, Texas, offers a wide variety of visitor programs year-round, including Star Parties three nights per week. Green Bank radio observatory in the mountains of West Virginia is home to the 360 foot Byrd Radio Telescope. Visitors are welcome year round and they can visit the new Science Center and exhibits. Other observatories noted are Sacramento Peak near Cloud Croft, New Mexico, the Very Large Array near Socorro, New Mexico, Palomar near San Diego, California, Cincinnati Observatory and Historic Landmark, and Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico.
