York University celebrates Science Literacy Week with a day of astronomy events.

Calling all stargazers! ASX's first event of the school year is coming up on Wednesday, September 25th, at the very top of McLennan Physical Laboratories (MP). We'll be hosting an observation night with the 8" and 16" telescopes on the tower roof, with knowledgeable graduate students there to answer any questions you have about the universe. Everyone of all ages is welcome to join us for a night of stars, astronomy, and free hot chocolate!

Durham Skies Astronomy and the RASC, Toronto Centre are donating a reflecting telescope to the Pickering Public Library at an unveiling ceremony at Millennium Square on Friday, September 6 at 7:00pm. Pickering Ward 1 Councillor Maurice Brenner, Pickering Library CEO Kathy Williams, Toronto Centre President Ralph Chou and Gary Wilkins of Durham Skies Astronomy will say a few words before the telescope is unveiled and aimed at the Moon for "first light." Since rain is not expected, the ceremony will be held at Millennium Square as originally planned.

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.

If the skies are clear on Thursday evening, September 5, local astronomers will set up their telescopes in Old Thornhill Village. Details and GO / NO-GO call: https://www.facebook.com/events/2456140727986608/
