Join us on September 22 on the campus of Université Sainte-Anne for an evening of sky exploration and star-counting. It all starts at 5 p.m. at the Rendez-vous de la Baie Welcome Centre with a presentation that will be simulcast between our three star party locations in Southwest Nova Scotia.
Later in the evening, Paul Lalonde of Nuit Stella - Night Hike / Randonnée de nuit will guide us in an observation of the night sky at the Church Point Lighthouse with a fascinating interactive discussion. When the stars come out, participants will be invited to collect data for our star-counting citizen science project. Free admission.
