Hello all,
I trust exam season is going well; this was brought to my attention by a WSS member and I thought I would share it with you all.
As some of you may know, the Perseid Meteor Shower is happening this coming week; Science Outreach is hosting a Stargazing Party on Tuesday, August 12th in partnership with the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada Kitchener-Waterloo Chapter. There is a lecture planned before hand, after which viewing will take place behind Brubacher House next to CIF.
You can register for the event here;https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/stargazing-party-at-the-university-of-waterloo-tickets-12372886637
If you're looking for a break from studying, I can think of few things cooler than watching as dozens of space-rocks burn up in our upper atmosphere.
WSS will be there with our dobsonian telescope, so we'll look forwards to seeing you there!
Thanks,
Daniel Richard
