TRCA: Astronomy on The Spit (SOLD OUT)
Tommy Thompson Park has the lowest light pollution of any locale in the City of Toronto. Come take advantage of a unique opportunity to learn about and view deep space! The night begins with an indoor presentation preparing you to immerse yourself in the wonders of the Milky Way and other galaxies. From there, we shuttle you 4 km to the south end of the Leslie Street Spit, where astronomers will share their expertise and telescopic views. What’s better than a night under the stars?
Bundle up! It’ll be chilly, but worth it! Bring binoculars if you have them – learn to use these tools to view the night sky. A few binoculars will be supplied.
In the event of cloud cover or rain, we will reschedule this event for November 17. The presentation site is approximately a 10 minute walk into the park from the gate and free parking is available near the gate. If accommodations are required, please contact Raja Raudsepp within two weeks of the event to discuss.
