Bright Stars

[Mythbuster]

Does anyone know if you can see the brights stars at night on the helipad like you can on the Explorer? They turn off all the lights on the front of the ship so you can see the heavens in all it's glory. Since the QoS has a helipad like the Explorer I was hoping they would do the same.

On the Quantum there is NO helipad like the Explorer. There is a small area at the bow but it is not open to the public.

 

The crew has a nice recreational area at the bow with lounge chairs, etc.

beachnative is correct about there being no access to the bow area. I was, however, able to see all of Orion and surrounding constellations from my cabin balcony.

I was never out here at night, but to get away from as many lights as possible I think this may be the best place to be to relax in a comfy chair to star-gaze:

 

 

This is deck 14 at the aft end of the ship behind Florider & IFly.

Have a great cruise! :D

That is unfortunate. The picture on the website does show a Helipad (I am assuming the big round deck with an H on it is a Helipad) and several loungers. That must be the crew recreation deck. Thanks

Thanks, I'll try out this location on Deck 14

We have booked the 'behind the scenes' tour. One of the areas listed was the helipad so I am guessing that this area is off limits at all other times.
