In the late 1920s, Edwin Hubble discovered that distant galaxies were receding away from us, implying that the universe itself was expanding. Seventy years later, it was found that the universe is not only getting bigger, but increasing in its rate of expansion. The mysterious substance behind this accelerated expansion has been given the name 'dark energy', and its discovery earned three cosmologists the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2011. For the month of September, Liam Connor, a Ph.D.

Proudly presented by the U of T Graduate Astronomy Students' Association. For the month of August, we welcome Dan Taranu, a Ph.D. candidate in his final year of studies to discuss the stark reality of human space exploration. The longest journey ever undertaken by humans beyond our own planet has been to our nearest neighbour - the moon, just 400,000 kilometres away. Even mankind's most distant space probes are now 'merely' 18 billion kilometres from Earth. But far beyond even these enormous distances lies an immense, unexplored galaxy with billions of stars.

The AstroCATS Committee has sadly decided that proceeding with AstroCATS 2017 is not in the best interests of the RASC Hamilton Centre, attendees, and especially for our valued vendors. We will however, proceed with the very popular Canadian Astrophotography School (CAPS).

Our friends from the North York Astronomical Association invite you to attend their annual star party, August 8-11, 2013. 

Join the Ottawa Centre during Canada's 150th anniversary for the 2017 RASC General Assembly. See the GA website for more details.
