Welcome to 2009, the International Year of Astronomy!

What is Cosmic Journey?

Cosmic Journey books experiences to destinations billions of light years away. We are the tour guides to make the experience educational and enjoyable. No carry-ons are required but we ask that you dress for the outdoor weather at the launch pad. Everyone gets a window seat. Our message of “Welcome Aboard!” is exactly that.

Everyone is welcome whether you are old or young and we only ask that you bring your imagination. Our delivery vehicle to the cosmos is our array of telescopes and tools to chart the journey and capture it through video and cameras.The vacation may only last an evening but the memories will last a lifetime and we hope it will make you look at the cosmos in a more appreciative way.

Our “outreach” is designed for all ages and understanding of the night sky. Our tours can be customized for what you want to experience from seeing and understanding Earth’s Moon, the planets, the stars and the dimmer but spectacular wonders of nebulae, galaxies, star clusters, comets and asteroids.

Our journeys are designed for school curriculums and youth science and environmental programs and we have delivered many of these. Public events such as the 2009 100 Hours of Astronomy Marathon showcase our ability to cater to large public events relating to astronomy. Contact us to book your school or group for a journey today!

Our dedication to responsible lighting practises, public education and experiences also has us introducing the opportunity of partnership events in 2009 where we will work with organizations to develop on site star parties to promote responsible lighting practices of the host organization. These star parties will promote the commitment of the host organization to responsible lighting practices of their facility to the public attending the star party.

These partnerships that Cosmic Journey looks to develop with organizations is the hope that organizations will look at responsible lighting as a way to reduce the use of electricity, protect the environment and preserve the night sky. These events will also promote the astronomical observing opportunities to the public and promote the dedication of organizations to the aspect of science and environmental stewardship to their customers or members.

This new program will roll out in the summer of 2009. Program details will be posted before the end of June 2009.

Contact us if you would like to be notified when this program is rolled out.

Welcome Aboard!
