Planning a Milky Way core viewing party? The right outdoor table can elevate your stargazing experience. Here’s what to look for:

1. Durability: Opt for weather-resistant materials like teak, aluminum, or polywood to withstand outdoor conditions.

2. Size & Shape: A large round or rectangular table (6-8 feet) accommodates telescopes, snacks, and guests comfortably.

3. Portability: Lightweight yet sturdy designs with foldable legs make setup and storage effortless.

4. Dark Surface: Matte black or dark-colored tables reduce glare, preserving night vision.

5. Accessory-Friendly: Look for built-in cup holders or hooks for hanging star charts and red flashlights.

Top picks include the Lifetime Adjustable Folding Table for versatility or the Temple Webster Teak Dining Table for a premium, rustic vibe. Pair it with cozy seating and minimal ambient lighting for an unforgettable celestial celebration!

Pro tip: Avoid glass tops—they reflect light and disrupt visibility. Happy stargazing!
