RASC National Society: The Insider's Guide to the Galaxy - Lessons From Beyond - Part 2 (ONLINE)
Join us online to learn basic astronomy that you can do on your own from your backyard!
We'll give you the tools to learn astronomy on your own at home, along with some observing goals to try. All you need is your computer! A pair of binoculars will help, but are not necessary. Sessions are always on Tuesdays at 3:30pm ET, but frequency of sessions changes.

Lessons From Beyond - Part 2 - Chris Vaughan with Guests Jodie Williams and Isaac Murdoch (Ojibway name Manzinapkinegego’anaabe / Bombgiizhik)
• Come and join us as we continue to explore the night sky through Indigenous perspectives. Together Isaac and Jodie will showcase how Indigenous knowledge systems can enhance current understandings of cosmology and astronomy. Through our new digital resource Lessons From Beyond, we weave together multiple understandings of the universe and show how both Indigenous and Western knowledge systems can reflect, resonate with, and reinforce one another, affirming each other as valid, valuable, and vital.
