DDO Star Talk and Stargazing (SOLD OUT)
Dr. Rachel Ward-Maxwell, Ontario Science Centre
Star Talk nights offer great talks by great speakers on astronomy, space science and sometimes, science fiction.
You'll also have a chance to tour the Observatory and (weather permitting) check out the night sky through a variety of telescopes set up on the lawn and through the big scope in the Main Dome. If the weather gods are angry, you can check out the (virtual) night sky in our special Skylab.
Star Talk nights run regardless of weather conditions.
Tickets must be purchased in advance for Star Talk nights on the David Dunlap Observatory website. Click on the "Buy Now" button beside the desired date and time that will take you to the online ticket purchasing page. The online system limits tickets to 5 per order.
Tickets for Star Talk nights are non-refundable since the program runs regardless of sky or weather conditions. If it's cloudy, hang onto your tickets for free telescope viewing only, on a future evening.
Please do not bring young children to our Star Talk nights. While our guest lecturers arrange their talks for the general public, young children are likely to find it a very long night. Kids will find Family Nights a much better experience. For safety reasons, children under 7 years of age are not permitted in the Main Dome.
Who can attend: Everyone (please note: we kindly request no children under 12 years of age)
Fee: $10.00
Tickets: DDO Tickets
Location: David Dunlap Observatory (DDO)
