The Monthly Meeting of the Peterborough Astronomical Association's (PAA) will take place September 5th  as a “Hybrid Meeting”, both online and in-person at our traditional physical location of the Rotary Education Centre/Guest Services Building, Riverview Park Zoo. Nothing can stop the spread of information and knowledge by the members of the PAA, including our ability to accommodate those that can’t physically be at the meeting. Our work around involves using a Zoom platform. To participate via Zoom, just make sure that in advance, you opened a (free) Zoom account on whatever iphone or tablet or device you wish to participate with and then contact  https://www.peterboroughastronomy.com/zoom_register.phpfor the password and link to our evenings classes and presentations.  If you wish to participate in person you are more than welcome to do so at the Zoo. 

Our “Novice Astronomy Classes” are focused on the practical aspects of learning about astronomy. You will be introduced to astronomy related subjects at a very basic level, but in a logical sequence.  In this month’s Novice Astronomy Class: continues the Solar System Series and takes an in-depth look at our nearest planetary neighbour, Venus.  You have probably witnessed Venus’ apparition in our evening or morning sky.  Its presence is unmistakable, whether correctly identified as the second planet from our Sun or mistaken for a brilliant star or mysterious UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena).  Often called Earth’s twin, Venus shares some characteristics with our home planet - a similar size, mass and gravity. Beneath its bright cloud tops a dense atmosphere produces a crushing pressure and run-away greenhouse effect.  Its surface temperature is the greatest of all the planets in our solar system.  Intrigued?  Join us on September 5th to discover many more wonders of our sister planet.

In the interactive segment of the class we will model what happens when a massive star reaches the end of its life and forms a black hole.

Tune in to be enlightened! If you are even remotely interested, be on-line by 6:00 p.m. to see what you can learn about exploring the Universe around you. The classes will run about 45 minutes each session, before our regular meeting resumes. There’s no obligation to stay for the meeting that follows, but you are more than welcome to if you wish.

Shortly after 7:00 p.m. we will have a Zoom presentation by Brett Joseph Cohen, owner/operator of “The Interstellar Collection”. He works directly with meteorite hunters, scientists, universities and collectors from around the world to make available high quality, museum-grade meteorite specimens. Brett will introduce us to and answer questions about, meteorites in his Meteorite 101 presentation.

Whether joining us on-line or in-person you will not be disappointed and you will learn a lot! Why not check this out? You don’t need to be a member to see this presentation or anything else listed. The price is right…it costs you nothing but your time.  

The Sky This Month will be posted on our club website for all to access. 

 There will also be the usual opportunities to have your questions answered, at no charge. All we ask is that you either come and see us in person at the Zoo or register in advance at https://www.peterboroughastronomy.com/zoom_register.php. This is an all ages meeting and  the venue is totally barrier free at the Zoo or just relax at home and “live and learn” as they say. Also, you don’t need a telescope to participate, but a curious mind helps.

Lions Community Centre, 

347 Burnham Street, 

7:30 p.m. 

Speaker Marg Graham and Dianne Cosway 

“Home Children”

From the late 1860’s until 1948, approximately 118,000 children of various ages were emigrated to Canada to serve as indentured farm workers and domestics. These children, known as home children, were sent by numerous organizations, including charities such as Barnardos, the largest sending organization.  Although Canadians believed these children to be orphans, only a small amount were true orphans.  Today, more than ten percent of the Canadians are descendants of these Children, many of who are unaware of their heritage.

The children were sent to Canadian farms under contracts with terms that required the children to be fed, clothed and sent to school.  A small fee would be paid for fostering younger children, older children would help with chores and more extended labour would be required for adolescents.  At 18 for boys and 21 for girls, the terms of indenture were to be discharged.  The clean, fresh air of Canadian farm was seen as a far better alternative to the slums of a big city.

Unfortunately, some of the children were exploited, neglected, abused and coerced, a form of human trafficking.

Marg Graham and Dianne Cosway, both residents of Trent Hills, will present details of the lives of Home Children and their contributions to Canada.  Marg has spent considerable time researching her family history, including her grandmother, Mary Mortimer, a home child, who was placed with the Barnardo organization at age 2.  She is a Director with Home Children Canada.   Since retiring, Dianne has dedicated her time to researching her father-in-law, Stafford Cosway, who was abandoned as an infant and sent to Canada to work as a farm hand.

The Peterborough Historical Society monthly speaker series takes place on the third Tuesday of September, October, November, January, February, March, and May. The meetings are being held at the Lions Club Centre on Burnham Street, starting at 7:30. Members, guests, and the general public are welcome.
