World Space Week 2005 Report

During World Space Week,École Secondaire De La Rive in Lavaltrie, Québec unveiled a scholastic space simulator for the first time. Parents and students alike were very impressed with the technology and with the realism of the simulator, which combines an immense 42 inch screen with an 800 watt acoustic system under the seats to provide the perception of intense vibrations. The simulator is now used twice a week to allow students to experience realistic virtual missions.

Kidston Elementary School in Coldstream, British Columbia celebrated World Space Week with a telescope viewing session for students.  We had four scopes out for this event and were able to see Mars through the scope, Andromedea the double star of the Big Dipper and a few other cosmic treats.
