UVic’s Observatory

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Vic chapter.


UVic Astronomy students lead tours of the Observatory every wednesday through the end of April. It goes from 8-10 on the 5th floor of the Bob Wright Centre. Visitors get to look through the telescope (Which is the 5th largest in Canada) and take tours of the sky with their naked eye. If the weather’s not great they will show you super cool videos and interactive solar systems that the average person doesn’t have access to. Its definitely worth a trip!
