The Deets
Okay, listen up! August is about to serve some serious celestial vibes. First up, the Perseid meteor shower is gonna be straight fire from August 11th to 13th. If you wanna catch the best show, peep the skies right after midnight on August 12th. Pro tip: ditch the city lights and just use your eyeballs. If the vibes are right, you could see, like, a hundred meteors an hour. No cap!
But that's not all! The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada Saskatoon and Regina centers are throwing the Saskatchewan Summer Star Party from August 20th to 24th at Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park. Astronomers are setting up camp with their telescopes, so you can get a closer look at the cosmos. Plus, there'll be speakers dropping knowledge and clinics teaching you the ways of the stars. It's gonna be a whole vibe.
And if you can't make it to the star party, the Kalium Observatory at the Saskatchewan Science Centre is hooking you up with free public viewing sessions twice a month. Mark your calendars for September 5th and 26th, starting at 8 p.m. It's free real estate for your eyeballs!
