Field trip to UofT planetarium and telescopes

 

2011-11-02

About 50 Huron people, a mixture of kids and their parents, visited the Astronomy and Physics buildings at the University of Toronto. We had a tour of their planetarium and visited their telescopes on top of Burton Tower. We saw the craters on the moon and Jupiter. The Astronomy Club is grateful to the Parent Council for contributing funds to make this a free event for us.
