RASC President Charles Ennis has been creating a catalogue of the star patterns employed by a myriad of cultures around the world.

The International Issues Discussion (IID) series at Toronto Metropolitan University is proud to present its third virtual talk of the Fall 2022 term: "Today's Leading Space Issues."

Although we are likely still decades away from discovering signs of life on worlds outside of our own solar system, much progress is being made today to identify the best potential candidates for hosting such life.

** NOTE: Pre-event tickets are sold out. We may have a small number of tickets at the door, available right before the event. In addition, if some other people who have tickets don't attend, there may be more capacity. After a three-year hiatus, we are so excited to announce that Astronomy on Tap is back! On Friday, November 11, quench your thirst for astronomy at The Great Hall in Toronto! It'll be another fun evening of pints, astronomy news, mind-expanding talks, games, prizes, and Dunlap merchandise for sale!

Speaker: Chris Vaughan Chris will discuss his experiences while observing the Moon: for fun, for outreach, and for completing RASC’s lunar observing programs. He’ll share observing tips and target suggestions, and highlight some of the best books, apps, and web tools for exploring the Moon from your driveway.

Everyone is invited to join us and Durham Skies 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, and planets visible in the current night sky. Peer into deep 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.
