OSC: Conversation with an Astronaut!

Excited about space exploration? Meet Quebec-born Canadian Space Agency astronaut David Saint-Jacques. He’ll be flying to the International Space Station on his first mission “Perspective” on December 20.

Learn about his journey to becoming an astronaut. Find out what it takes to prepare for a mission in outer space. Get to know what sort of scientific experiments he’ll get himself into in zero-gravity during his six and a half months aboard the International Space Station.

This is your chance to ask David Saint-Jacques questions before he leaves for a mission that’s out of this world!

This event is included with general admission to the Science Centre. Tickets and seating are available on a first-come, first-served basis on the day of the event. Line up at the auditorium doors to receive tickets. Each person in line may receive one ticket (you must be present in line to receive a ticket). No admission after 11:10am. An overflow video feed will be broadcast in the Hot Zone (no auditorium tickets required for overflow viewers).
