Your role: helping us share astronomy and the starry night

To reach its full educational potential, ASTROLab is now calling on the community to fund projects that are close to its heart.

Astronomy evenings at the top of Mount Mégantic attract more visitors each year than can be accommodated with existing infrastructure. Recently funded, the Exosphere is a construction project of a dome of multimedia animation serving as an animation room, a signature place on the site of one of the most beautiful astronomical observation terraces in the world. Combine your contribution with the multimedia content component of this educational facility that houses a multdimedia hall where presentations will blend with the scenery of mountains and starry skies.

• Help create a unique place of contemplation and education, located at 1,100 metres above sea level, in a protected natural environment, in the heart of the 1st International Dark Sky Reserve.

• Give more people access to the starry sky experience at the top of Mount Mégantic.

• Make a tangible contribution to society’s culture and scientific literacy.

• Enhance the glass dome:

o A place dedicated to scientific education (astronomy, geology, climate environment).

o Experience in enhancing nature.

o Implementation of a high-level public astronomy program.

o Optimizing the room’s spherical shape to provide an exclusive experiential multimedia experience.
