Huron Family Astronomy Night!

The Astronomy Club invites the Huron Community to attend Family Astronomy night next Thursday, 1 March. We are planning various activities that should be of interest to everyone in the Huron community. We will have activities for young kids, lectures by some professional astronomers. If there are clear skies, we expect members of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada will bring their telescopes and let us have a deep peek into the sky. Please RSVP so we know how much hot chocolate to prepare!

Bring your binoculars!

Keep looking up!

Featured Events:

• A lecture by Huron Parent and Astronomy Professor Yanqin Wu: Twinkling stars, how many planets do you have?

• Small Silent Auction with proceeds to Huron Parent Council.
• Toronto RASC members will bring their telescopes to the Huron field and share deep peeks into the night sky (depending upon cloud cover). President Ralph Chou will attend the event!
