UofT Planetarium: The Life and Death of Stars (SOLD OUT)

Showtimes: 7:00pm, 8:10pm, 9:15pm The stars in the night sky seem unchanging and eternal, and have remained the same for the history of human civilization. However, over millions and billions of years, new stars are born, live out their long lives, and eventually die in a blaze of glory. In this show, we will be exploring the lives of stars by visiting stellar nurseries, supernova remnants and much more!

Maria A. Shchuka Library: Cosmology, Cell Phones and Video Games

Join us for a Science Literacy Week talk with Professor Keith Vanderlinde! Professor Vanderlinde has spent the last decade building and using telescopes to study the universe: its composition, history, and eventual fate. Aided by technologies that make cell phones and video games possible, and which make video games a staple of modern culture, he and colleagues from across Canada have just completed a massive new radio telescope in Penticton, B.C., which is mapping a larger volume of space than ever attempted before.
