Fun with Static and Ice! Science Demonstrations
Dates & times to be confirmed
What better way to celebrate the Winter Break then with jaw-dropping experiments about two common elements of the season: static electricity and freezing temperatures. Ever wonder why you get a ZAAAP when you walk across the carpet, or take off a sweater in the winter? It’s SCIENCE! And we’ll show you why it happens in ways guaranteed to shock you! And if you think it’s cold outside, we’ve got something even colder… liquid nitrogen. You’ll get chills as we freeze objects faster and colder than your nose on a frosty Manitoba night!
DOME@HOME
December 30 @ 7 pm
We will look forward to the top ten astronomy events of 2022 so you can plan your year! We’ll reveal a pair of total lunar eclipses, a potentially-bright comet, a mega-meteor shower, and the best times to see the moon and planets in 2022.
Plus, a look at 2022’s launch schedule, from robotic spacecraft to human explorers.

Want to explore the winter skies from the comfort of home?
DOME@HOME: Special Program
December 30 @ 7 pm
The DOME@HOME all-sky camera systems will be out to record the Quadrantid meteor shower. It’s also New Moon, which means we can expect dark skies for the shower. This is also a perfect time to observe other celestial objects.
Join us on Facebook or YouTube live!
In case of cloudy skies, the event will be cancelled.
