On November 1st, we will open up the Cronyn Observatory for the public to enjoy short talks by professional astronomers, look at celestial objects through our telescopes (weather permitting), participate in cool astronomy demos and step back into the rich history of the Cronyn Observatory.

For this Public Night, we are joining forces with the “Space as a National Asset for Canada” (SNAC) conference (https://snac.uwo.ca/), happening in London from Oct 31 – Nov 2, 2022. SNAC conference attendees are also invited to this fun evening at Cronyn!

More about SNAC:
Western Space will be hosting SNAC 2022 to bring together the space community in universities, industry, and government, explore the current and future value of space technologies for Earth applications and discuss Canadian ambitions for space. Topics will include exploration science and technologies, Earth observations for climate change and food security, policy and law, space resources, space debris, and more.

We are excited to welcome you to this Public Night!
Venue: Cronyn Observatory, Western University
Time: 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm
