Description

Saturn has long delighted observers with its spectacular ring system, but this gas giant is always surprising us. Join us at the Richmond Hill David Dunlap Observatory to celebrate Spectacular Saturn at Opposition and learn about the many wonders of the ringed planet – from its host of moons to its hexagonal polar storm! Participants will have views through telescopes, including the largest telescope in Canada (weather dependent), learn interesting facts and stories about Saturn, and enjoy fun activities.
