Welcome

The Royal Astronomical
Society of Canada, Kingston Centre welcomes you to our community of observers, astro-photographers,
and space science enthusiasts. Whether you are a seasoned observer with a permanent observatory or a
beginner who has never looked through a telescope, our Centre is dedicated to supporting your
journey through the cosmos.

We pride ourselves on being an active, hands-on group. From our collaborative efforts with Queen’s University
to our public outreach at Science Rendezvous, our goal is to make the night sky accessible to
everyone in the Kingston area. Our monthly meetings and social gatherings at the Portsmouth Tavern
are the perfect places to share knowledge, troubleshoot equipment, or simply enjoy the company of
those who share a fascination with the universe. We invite you to join us at our next event, ask
questions, and look through our eyepieces. Clear skies!
