Home to its own Space Institute and alma mater to more astronauts than any other Canadian university, McGill has played an outsized role in Canada's contribution to space exploration and research.

Alumni, friends and students are invited to join us as we bring together two astronauts and one of the planet's leading astrophysicists on a star-studded panel to examine some of the biggest challenges we face in the quest for knowledge about our universe and beyond.
