What we’re about
Share the wonders of the night (and sometimes daytime) sky with like-minded people. We get together for public astronomy talks or public astronomy observing sessions.
We hope to start a new chapter (or "Centre" as they are called) of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada

The Alberta Star Party is open to everyone – not just RASC members. We invite you and your family to attend. The Annual Alberta Star Party is hosted by the Calgary Centre of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada and we feel that you will be impressed by the dark and transparent skies.
As always, participants are encouraged to arrive early and stay late.
