The University of Colombo’s Astronomical Society has organized a Night Sky Observational Camp for university students and the general public to witness a planetary parade through telescopes.

The event will take place on February 28, 2025, from 6:20 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the university playgrounds, accessible via Reid Avenue or Thurstan Road.

Prof. Chandana Jayaratne, Head of the Department of Physics, stated that while the planetary alignment can be seen from home, the event was arranged in response to public interest.

Attendees are advised not to visit if the sky is cloudy.
