Showtimes: 7:00pm, 8:10pm, 9:15pm The stars in the night sky seem unchanging and eternal, and have remained the same for the history of human civilization. However, over millions and billions of years, new stars are born, live out their long lives, and eventually die in a blaze of glory. In this show, we will be exploring the lives of stars by visiting stellar nurseries, supernova remnants and much more!

What can we learn from a group of stars that were born at the same time?

Have you ever looked up at the starry sky and felt small and insignificant compared to the vastness of the cosmos?

A walking tour which describes how Toronto became a "centre of the universe" for astronomical research, education, and public outreach, in parallel with the growth of our city and country. An introduction to the people, organizations (including RASC), and institutions which have nurtured astronomy in Toronto. Ends up at Science Rendezvous!

Everyone is invited to join us and Durham Skies on April 20 for stargazing at the edge of Lake Ontario. Take a free look through different kinds of telescopes (including solar-filtered scopes) to get close-up looks at sunspots, craters on the Moon, Venus, and the springtime constellations. Peer deep into space and try your hand at spotting faint star clusters and nebulae. You can even bring your own telescope along and we'll give you expert advice on how to use it better.

Every year the Faculty of Science at York University joins forces with Main Street Markham to present Science Rendezvous at the award-winning Markham Farmers’ Market.

Science Rendezvous is a free annual all-day festival that brings science out of the lab and onto the street with the ultimate goal of improving student enrolment as well as public involvement in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (S.T.E.M.) fields.
