Telus World of Science is hosting a Live Mission Launch of Artemis 1 in the Zeigler Dome

Artemis I is the first integrated test of NASA's deep space exploration systems: the Orion spacecraft, Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and the ground systems at the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida. The first in a series of increasingly complex missions, Artemis I will lay the foundation for deep space exploration and humans returning to the Moon!

Witness the stage being set for human exploration into deep space with a livestream of the Artemis I launch event in our 360-degree dome theatre!

After the launch, join Frank Florian, Senior Manager, Planetarium and Space Sciences, for a Q&A session followed by special showings of Canadian Science & Technology: A Path to the Moon and Forward! To the Moon in the Zeidler Dome!
