The Observatory
Get a glimpse of the stars at the University of Saskatchewan’s Observatory, open late for Nuit Blanche Eve.
About the Observatory
The campus observatory was constructed between 1928 and 1930, and is available for use by both university students and visitors to the campus. The telescopes and other scientific equipment are used by university students during the laboratory component of their courses. University personnel regularly offer tours of the observatory to elementary and high school classes, youth groups and other community associations. The Observatory is staffed year-round on the first and third Saturday evening of every month so that any visitor may view celestial objects through the telescope.
