International Year of Astronomy in Calgary

Description

Telescope dealer All-Star Telescope offers regular free stargazing nights at their premises just south of Didsbury on Hwy 2A and Wescott Road.

Observer Nights are informal evenings to share views of the nightsky with others interested in astronomy. Bring along your own telescope if you have one or you can share views from other telescopes. A warm showroom with bathroom is available. There is no charge and no pre-registration is required. Just come and enjoy the views. A warm-up area is available.

See http://www.all-startelescope.com/index.php/Observer-Nights.html for details and directions.

Watch for the lit "star" up the driveway marking the observing area.
