Join us for an Atrium Tour this Wednesday, April 24th! This is different from our usual observatory tour as it is open air and atop of Arboretum Parking Garage at York University. You will get a chance to observe through and learn about our smaller telescopes and star gaze!

Did you know? Saturn has a Moon named Enceladus which is mostly covered in fresh clean ice, making it one of the most reflective bodies in the solar system. It reflects 90% of Sun’s light making the temperatures reach as low as -394 degree Fahrenheit! Image credit: NASA
