Have a fun morning and afternoon at OPG's March Madness event. This year's theme is Space! The Durham Region Astronomical Association will have displays and literature on all things astronomical. Make your own planisphere that shows you what stars and constellations are visible for any date and time. And we will have solar-filtered telescopes providing safe views of sunspots and solar prominences!
DRAA members who would like to participate: please send a note to Arnold Brody at stargazing@drastronomy.com. Thank you.
The public entrance to the Pickering generating station is off of Montgomery Park Road, first left west of Brock Road South. Follow the signs to the Information Centre.

The Durham Region Astronomical Association will be on hand to talk about anything astronomical, and discuss effective lighting practices to help fight the damaging effects of light pollution. There will be astronomy books to look through, many astronomical displays, and an opportunity to make your own planisphere for learning the seasons' constellations!
