Come join members of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada for our annual Camping and Observing (COW) event at Mactaquac Provincial Park.

Several telescopes will be set-up on Friday and Saturday nights, to allow the public to view the wonders of the night sky. Weather permitting, we’ll be able to see various star clusters, galaxies, and nebulae.

Preceding the evening observation sessions, there will be a presentation where you can learn about the night sky wonders that can be observed that evening.

During Saturday afternoon, drop by to take a close-up view of the sun through our safe solar-filtered telescopes. Bring along your telescope for a free set and tuning. If you need instructions on operation, there will be amateur astronomers on hand to guide you through the use and set-up of your telescope.
