Astro On Tap Victoria – The Golden Age of Astronomy & How to Build a Planet
Free
Astronomy on Tap in Victoria returns on Thursday, November 19th for another FREE showcase of the incredible science and research by local astronomers! Doors open @6:30pm and talks begin @7pm at The Vicious Poodle, a fantastic LGBTQ+ safe bar downtown. Stick around for space-themed trivia afterwards, and of course, enjoy the food and drinks served by our incredible host!
The speakers of the night will be Marielle Eduardo of the University of Victoria and Dr. Wes Fraser of the NRC Herzberg Astronomy and Astrophysics Research Centre. Their research seeks to understand the formation and evolution of the Solar System by using cutting-edge telescopes to investigate the icy outer reaches beyond the orbit of Neptune.
Destination Greater Victoria is honoured to be based on the traditional territory of the Lekwungen-speaking peoples of the Songhees Nation and Xwsepsum Nation, whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.
