Because of the cloud and wind conditions, the planned Star Party at the Ontario Science Centre for tonight April 20th is NO-GO! We’ll try again sometime soon!
With the current cloud conditions, it is a NO-GO for Ontario Science Centre Solar Observing today. We will try again May 4th.
Due to the cloudy conditions, it is a NO-GO for the Millenium Square public stargazing this evening. We will try again tomorrow if conditions are favourable.
Change in Pre-Eclipse events: On Sat March 16th, the OSC event is still on and expected to be exciting, from 11am-3pm. But, while all volunteers have been told that the separate Toronto Public Library for the 16th is not happening anymore, this is just a friendly reminder.
As the weather forecast is not favourable, it is a NO-GO for Solar Observing at Ontario Science Center, tomorrow Saturday March 9.
*This weekend* All RASC-TC members are invited to participate and volunteer in “What’s up with Stargazing”, Feb. 17th, 6-7pm, at Downsview Park, hosted by RASC-TC's Dr. Hyde. Anyone interested can contact RASC's EPO Chair for more information: [email protected]

This morning I happened to find this tucked into this old book. It was 47 years ago yesterday that I bought my first telescope, a used Tasco 4.25" reflector on an equatorial mount. $150 was a lot of money for a 15-year-old rural paper boy!

An amazing end to an amazing day! I enjoyed being part of the #virtualparty with all these fantastic teams from @RASCTC and @OntScienceCtr...we literally took a #spacemugshot at the end of the event 😄😄
And that's a wrap for our live stream tonight about #Perseverance on Mars, the moon, and the winter sky - with myself, @IngredientsbyL, @planscib, and our talented @RASCTC telescope operators!
I loved every minute of tonight’s virtual star party. Many thanks to the @RASCTC & @OntScienceCtr teams. And cheers to #Perseverance & all the mission scientists who will hopefully get a good night’s sleep tonight! 🔴🌓🔭💫✨
