Join poet Laboni Islam for a special tour of The Moon: A Voyage Through Time, an exhibition that looks at the moon through the lens of art, science, and spirituality.

In this profusely-illustrated, non-technical presentation, you will see the universe, as revealed by modern astronomy is just as exciting as the universe of science fiction and video games. And it's real! And you can see it and understand it! Lots of time for Q&A.

Explore the universe with members of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada. Telescopes will be set up to provide amazing views of the Moon, the planets and more! (Rain date is May 15th).

Let’s Celebrate International Astronomy Day!

Every year the Faculty of Science at York University joins forces with Main Street Markham to present Science Rendezvous at the award-winning Markham Farmers’ Market.

Ryerson’s Science Rendezvous offers hands-on activities and demonstrations in many scientific areas. We have activities for young children, teens and adults. Come on out to the Kerr Hall quad in the heart of Ryerson's campus, and enjoy a day outdoors with science.

Our guest speaker for this meeting will be Alanna Mitchell. Alanna is the author of The Spinning Magnet, her most recent book, all about the Earth’s magnetic field. Part history, part science, it explores all we know about one of the most important and least understood parts of our planet. From our discoveries about the connection between magnetism and electricity to the possibility that we are about to undergo a pole reversal, Alanna brings a spirited talk about this fascinating subject off the page onto our stage.

We are a go for Friday. Please remember to dress warmly. Note also that the sky may be cloudy to start with but should clear around 9:00pm.
