Although Tim Ducette has very limited vision, he is able to discern the stars and planets in the night sky. Tucked away in a quiet corner of Canada, there is very little light pollution making it the perfect place to experience our little piece of the universe.

After his wife bought him a telescope and he found that he could see more than expected through the lens, Tim set up a social media account to share his finds. Now he also hosts tourists who want to learn more about what can be seen in the night skies. Read more about Tim’s experience here.  

If you are experiencing vision loss, we have programs to help you adjust. Visit our Programs page to learn more.
