The winter sky presents some of the most spectacular sights available to sky-watchers. During this hands-on program, astronomers from the Dunlap Institute will present an overview of the night sky. Then we will move outdoors and look through the telescope. The moon will be in a quarter phase, so the mountains and craters should be visible. Children & families are encouraged to participate. There will be lots of opportunities to ask questions.

Quench your thirst for astronomy! On Wednesday, November 18th, at the Tranzac Club! It'll be another fun evening of pints, mind-expanding talks, games and prizes with astronomers from the University of Toronto. Plus, following all the talks and games, there'll be plenty of time and plenty of astronomers around to answer all your cosmic questions.

Speaker: Ari Silburt The Moon is intimately connected to humans, whether we realize it or not. It has been there since the formation of the Earth, and has watched over life as we evolved to the present day. Like ourselves, the Moon has also been changing with time, and there are many layers to its existence. In this lecture I will re-acquaint the public with the Moon, describing its formation history, its relationship to humans, its current relationship with the Earth, and future space plans on the Moon.
