Like Jana, I haven't discovered too many unconventional places or things, but Dartmouth's very own observatory is something that I think a lot of students overlook. Shattuck Observatory is the college's oldest science building, but of course the technology isn't. The Department of Physics and Astronomy offers free public viewing usually every Friday night. Since, Dartmouth is in a rural area the skies are so clear and beautiful at night which makes viewing the Moon, stars, and other planets so easy.Picture Courtesy of: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~physics/news/observing.html
