Come, brave the cold, and see the stars! Members of the Kitchener-Waterloo Royal Astronomical Society of Canada will be setting up astronomical telescopes for private viewings. Come see winter constellations like Taurus, Gemini, and Orion, as well as star clusters, nebulae, and many other curious objects in the beautiful winter Milky Way. Later, as winter melts into spring, we may even view a few distant galaxies.

Our goal is to run 2 of the following programs:
Thursday, November 27, 2025, 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM
Thursday, January 22, 2026, 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM
Thursday, February 26, 2026, 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM
Thursday, March 26, 2026, 9 PM to 11PM
Thursday, April 23, 2026, 9 PM to 11 PM
Thursday, May 28, 2026, 9 PM to 11 PM

The weather makes stargazing very unpredictable and therefore hard to schedule. Instead of opening up registration for all of these dates and having to cancel some of them, we are instead going to have everyone who is interested sign up on a list (there is no fee to do this). To sign up on the list click on the link to register for workshops and you will find the link for the list in the list of workshops.

The morning of each of the above listed dates we will send an email out by 10:30 AM to let you know whether the instructors are going to run the program or not. Their decision will be based both on the sky and the weather (i.e., if it is forecasted to be excessively cold the program will not run). The registration will open when we send the email out. Anyone can register for the program regardless of whether they are on the sign up list or not.
