About us
This page is owned and managed by the Vancouver Centre of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (RASC). All RASC lectures and observing events are open to the public, family friendly, and there is no charge for admission. Our organization is run entirely by volunteers who love astronomy and astrophysics.
Whether you're a complete beginner, a seasoned astronomer, or you hope to work for NASA some day, anyone fascinated by space exploration is welcome and will enjoy our events. Membership requests MUST INCLUDE a recent and clear headshot. This is part of our safety policy so that we can recognize our members at events.
