Description

Mont-Tremblant’s dark skies are the perfect setting for our Astronomy and stargazing evening. It is one of the many fun and educational outdoor activities that we offer and it is perfect for the whole family!

The evening starts at dusk with a presentation of our place in the universe projected onto the dome ceiling of our Mont-Tremblant Astronomy Pavilion. Then, when the sky gets dark and if the night is clear, our presenter will open the retractable roof for guided observation and even photos of the objects in the night sky, using the second largest publicly accessible telescope in Quebec. If the skies are cloudy the roof will stay closed and the night sky will be projected on the dome ceiling for a presentation about the birth and history of the Cosmos (themes may vary).

Monthly events: stars and planetsc

June 2024 : Northern Lights

What are these greenish lights that show up in the north sky from time to time? Where do they come from? What causes them? Can we predict them? Auroras are the result of huge explosions on our Sun that come our way and influence the behaviour of the upper reaches of the atmosphere.

July 2024: Deep Sky Objects.

Double stars, star clusters, planetary or diffuse nebula and even galaxies are all visible in the summer sky. They are the most sought-after objects by amateur astronomers. We will learn more about them before observing them in the telescope.

August 2024: Saturn, Lord of the Rings.

Saturn is the second biggest planet in our solar system. With its icy rings and 82 moons, it’s one of the most beautiful objects to look at in a telescope. Come and learn more about this very special planet and the Cassini probe that observed it for many years.

September

Saturn – The lord of the rings. The gas giant with its fantastic rings and 81 moons is one of the most spectacular objects in the sky and will be visible in the September night sky. Join us to learn more about this world, so different from ours.

October

Jupiter – The queen of the solar system: By itself, Jupiter has the same weight as the other 7 planets combined. It shows colorful cloud bands, huge storms that could contain twice the whole of earth and 79 moons. We will explore this system based on all the last discoveries and later take a look at it (and 4 of its biggest moons) in our 400mm telescope.

December

Mars – The red planet and its visitors that came from earth. Early in the 1960’s, satellites, landers and rovers have been sent on missions to Mars to gather information to prepare for human exploration. According to the data currently retrieved, the first steps on Mars could be around 2029’s.

January

Asteroids that impacted Earth – Throughout history, Earth has constantly been bombarded by asteroids of all shapes and sizes. Though most are small and harmless, sometimes some have catastrophic results. Every day, new technological advancements are discovered to protect us from potential impacts.

February

Star nurseries – In many areas of the sky, there are huge quantities of hydrogen gas left over from the Big Bang. These clouds of gas, called nebulas, are the building blocks for the creation of new stars. We will visit a few of these nebulas and in particular talk of the famous Orion nebula that we will later observe with binoculars and our telescope.

March

Black holes – These mysterious objects that absorb everything in their neighborhood but remain impossible to see, can be found in many areas of the universe. Stelar black holes resulting from the death of certain stars are distributed everywhere. “Super massive” black holes, often billions of times the mass of our sun, are generally in the center of the galaxies. Come learn more about these space ogres.

Couple | Astronomie et observation des étoiles Excellent présentateur très passioné. Activité de très bon rapport qualité prix! Bon mélange d'apprentissage théorique et observation pratique aux jumelles et au téléscope! Juste dommage que le ciel n'était pas assez dégagé la nuit où a été, difficile à prévoir. J'essaierai de refaire cette activité!

Astronomy and Star Gazing - Domaine Saint-Bernard It was easy to book online, and there was enough information and reminders sent over before the activity proceeded. There can be some more information for travellers arriving without their own cars, for example via the bus in Mont Tremblant. This stargazing/astronomy night experience exceeded our expectations. Alain Préfontaine is a brilliant host and is very passionate and knowledgeable about astronomy. We attended the session in English, and felt like we had learnt a lot in a short period. The presentation was well planned and very clear. We could not view stars through the telescope as it was a very cloudy night, but we had a wonderful experience. Thank you!
