Come join us on
Saturday April 16 for some “out - of - this world”
fun!
It’s National
Astronomy Day and McMaster University is hosting
a special event for budding astronomers between the
ages of 8 – 12 years old*.
We're going to
be cooking up some comets with the help of a few lucky
audience participants. Everyone will be making their
own crater, have the opportunity to visit McMaster’s
W.J.
McCallion Planetarium and see our Solar
Car, Fireball 2.
Science in the
City for Kids begins at 1:00 pm in the McMaster University
Student Centre (in the main floor Marketplace) and will
end at approximately 4:30 pm.
The hands-on activities can be messy, so wear your grubbiest
clothes or bring along your own coveralls, apron or
lab coat.
*These
activities are not appropriate for children under 8
years of age. We request that kids are accompanied by
an adult for the duration of the event.
Special
Thanks to the volunteers from the Hamilton
Amateur Astronomers for their generous help with
this event!
