OSC Nuit Blanche: Evening Telescope Observing / Observe the Moon Night 2019
Have you ever looked through a telescope? Take a tour of the night sky through a telescope and snap a photo or two of your favourite celestial body. Learn about the phases of the Moon, get an up-close look at the planets, and gaze at the brightest stars (weather permitting).
It’s also International Observe the Moon Night. Contemplate the Earth indoors then head outdoors to consider the Moon, stars and neighbouring through a high-tech telescope.
