Just got a new ‘scope?' Already had one for years that’s been collecting dust? The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada is hosting a telescope clinic to help you get started. Bring your telescope out and let our experienced members show you how to use it! Maximum two family members per registration. Participants under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a registered adult. COVID protocols will be in place.

Are you ready to explore where your future in the space industry may be?

We're back with our next online observing program! This time we'll be bringing you the Explore the Moon Observing Program. Anyone can join as we dive into craters and climb mountain ranges on our nearest neighbour. Stay tuned for more details, and keep an eye on this page for all the information you need about this program!

Where do you find mountain ranges, craters and lava plains on the Moon? We'll be talking about common features, how we find them, and how we use cardinal directions on the Moon.

For Grades 1-3 youth interested in STEAM and curious about space exploration. We introduce basic topics in engaging ways all week.

Think Like A Space Engineer All Week!

We have lots of cool-looking craters on our target lists today, so we'll be going over how to identify crater features.

We have our first day of finding lunar landing locations! Moon at Noon cohost John loves the Apollo missions, so you bet we'll be talking about Apollo 12 and 14.

We'll be taking a pause on targets today to talk about any observing problems you may be tackling.

For the first time in this series, we'll be looking for the Moon in the morning (or really late at night, if you're a night owl).
