Hi Bluesky, we're the Trottier Observatory, a research and public outreach observatory based at @sfu.ca in Burnaby, BC. We're home to Canada's largest star party every clear Friday evening (last Friday of the month online). Follow us for event and weather updates. We hope to see you soon!

In the foreground there is a long, rectangular plinth that lights up at night. SFU's iconic Academic Quadrangle building is in the background.
