This child happily collected several of the
Astronomy Trading Cards
which were available at various stations. These cards are an initiative of the
Canadian IYA national node
and can be collected at IYA events throughout the year. To commemorate the IYA, any person in Canada who experiences a
Galileo Moment
can have their
name sent into space
by the Canadian Space Agency on board NEOSSat in 2010! The "key" is on the Astronomy Trading Card, which includes a number on the back. Photo credit: Sharon Morsink
