Plateau Astro
Evenements et ateliers d'astronomie dans Montréal
Mission
L'astronomie devrait être accessible, abordable et pratique.
Même au milieu d'une ville.
La plupart des gens sont fascinés par l’espace et le ciel nocturne, mais la plupart supposent que vous ne pouvez pas profiter de l’astronomie lorsque vous vivez dans une grande ville très éclairée.
Cette hypothèse devrait être contestée.
Oui, c’est vrai: il ya une vision plus claire du ciel nocturne à l’écart des lumières de la ville. Mais nous pouvons toujours en profiter dans les belles régions de Montréal où nous passons notre vie quotidienne.
A propos de l'hôte
Salut! Je m'appelle Trevor!
Depuis que je suis petit, je m'intéresse à l'espace et au ciel nocturne.
Au printemps 2017, j'ai finalement eu un télescope et je l'emmenais au parc Lafontaine presque chaque nuit claire. Les gens demandaient à regarder et étaient époustouflés par ce que vous pouviez voir: les cratères et les détails fins de la surface de la Lune, les lunes de Jupiter et même les anneaux de Saturne.
Ils ont appris à propos du ciel nocturne - et j'ai appris que j'aimais l'enseigner.

I love space, photography, and Montréal. My prints and postcards try to merge all three.
Using the city as a backdrop, my photos try to capture the magic in the sky from down on the ground. Available to pickup in the Plateau and available to ship anywhere in Canada + USA.

Salut! I'm Trevor!
Since I was a small kid, I've had an interest in space and the night sky.
In spring 2017, I finally got a telescope and would bring it to Parc Lafontaine almost every clear night. People would ask to take a look and were blown away by what you could see: the craters and fine details of the Moon's surface, the moons of Jupiter, and even the rings of Saturn.
They learned about the night sky – and I learned that I loved teaching it.
