Hesje Observatory Facility Tour

Описание: Alumna and research assistant, Rae Metrunec, takes us around Augustana Campus' newest facility—the Hesje Observatory.

Although University of Alberta buildings are currently closed due to COVID-19 restrictions, we are looking forward to a time, post pandemic, when we can share this wonderful facility. In this effort, we have created a form where you can leave your contact information so we can contact you when it is safe to welcome you in person: https://forms.gle/XeycqsrwVWxxu7iT6

We acknowledge that the land on which we gather, traditionally known as asiniskaw sipisis (Stoney Creek), is Treaty 6 territory and a traditional meeting ground for many Indigenous peoples. The land on which the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta is located provided a travelling route and home to the Maskwacis Nêhiyawak, Niitsitapi, Nakoda, and Tsuut'ina Nations, the Métis, and other Indigenous peoples. Their spiritual and practical relationships to the land create a rich heritage for our learning and our life as a community.
