November 19 Public Viewing – CANCELLED

UPDATE (10:30AM Nov. 19): The weather is looking cloudy all day today, so our viewing is cancelled. Our next scheduled viewing after this one will be Tuesday, December 6 (details will be posted next week).

——————————————————————————————————————–

Our next public viewing at our telescope will be Saturday, November 19, from 7:00 to 9:00PM. We hope to have better luck with the weather for this viewing than we’ve had during our last few attempts!

Our observatory is on the rooftop of UPEI’s Memorial Hall, but we ask that you come first to room 417 to wait for your turn to go up to the telescope. Volunteers from local astronomy groups and UPEI Physics will have information about the Moon and answer any questions for you while you wait.

It is necessary to climb a flight of stairs to reach the telescope, but the elevator can be taken up to the waiting room.Observatory Location & Parking

In the evening hours, campus parking lots are free, with parking lots B and C being the nearest lots to Memorial Hall.

If the weather is cloudy and we cannot view the sky, the event will have to be cancelled. Our next scheduled viewing after this one will be Tuesday, December 6, from 8-9PM.
