SUMMARY:Partial Solar Eclipse
DESCRIPTION:Update: Unfortunately\, the weather forecast for this Saturday\, Oct 14 2023\, is not looking favorable to observe this solar eclipse from London\, with predictions of 0 hours of sunshine\, and lots of rain. Clearly\, in such weather we will sadly not be able to show you the Sun through our telescopes or eclipse glasses. However\, we will open up the Observatory at 11:30am\, and show a live stream from other sites in our main classroom. There will be astronomers on site to provide you with commentary and background information\, and to answer all your questions. Depending on interest\, we may also offer tours of the Observatory. We expect to close the Observatory again shortly after the eclipse is over\, around 2:30pm. \nOn Sat Oct 14\, 2023\, London will experience a partial solar eclipse. The eclipse will start at 11:51am and reach a maximum at 1:07pm. At that time\, almost 43% of the Sun’s diameter will be covered by the Moon. The eclipse will end at 2:25pm. This will be an annular eclipse across a narrow track over the USA; here in London\, it will only be a partial eclipse.You can find out more about this specific eclipse here: https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/canada/london?iso=20231014. \n

SUMMARY:The Long Lost Manuscript of Cronyn Observatory: A visual and poetic experience of the night sky
DESCRIPTION:Unearthed after 75 years\, the lost manuscript of Beatrice W. Welling comes to life this evening in “A Cosmic Treasury: Seeing the skies through poets’ eyes — weekly poems and art for the year.” This anthology\, completed in 1943\, is a celebration of the heavens\, featuring over 80 poems spanning more than 300 years of English literature\, each dedicated to celestial phenomena. From Shakespeare to Shelley\, and including notable female and Canadian poets\, Welling’s collection offers a poetic journey through the cosmos. Each week of the year is marked with a verse\, with poems aptly timed to the calendar year. This long-forgotten manuscript\, rediscovered in 2019\, is now complemented by a curated collection of more than 100 pieces of astronomical art spanning five centuries\, selected by Observatory Curator Mark Tovey\, creating a visual and poetic experience of the night sky. “A Cosmic Treasury” is not just an anthology\, but a resurrection of a pioneering work that illuminates the enduring influence of celestial wonders on human creativity. \nJoin us between 7:00pm to 9:00pm to celebrate its publication. Join Observatory Curator Mark Tovey and special guests as we delve into centuries of poetry and art of the night sky. Book available for purchase. Book signing to follow\, plus stargazing with the observatory telescope. \n  \nNo registration required\, you can come and go as you please\, making it the perfect activity for a spontaneous night out or a fun date with friends or family. \nVenue: Cronyn Observatory\, Western University \nTime: 7:00 to 9:00 pm \nYou can find directions to the Observatory and Parking information here: https://cronyn.uwo.ca/visit-the-observatory/directions-maps-and-parking/ Hope to see you all there!
