In The Spotlight
Long a history-maker, now an historic site
Parks Canada has designated NRC's Dominion Astrophysical Observatory as a national historic site to recognize its importance to Canadian astronomy’s development.
NRC-HIA is Canada's gateway to the stars. In addition to operating the government's observatories and a national astronomy data centre, we develop advanced scientific instruments for astronomical observatories and industrial partners — bringing out-of-this-world technology back down to Earth.
