10:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Health in Space demystifies the health challenges — such as variable gravity, radiation, and isolation — that astronauts face while living and working in space. Through authentic artifacts and captivating interactive activities, this exhibition will engage visitors to better understand Canada’s role in advancing health research. Discoveries in this field will be essential for the success of future deep-space expeditions, and may also help solve medical challenges on Earth.


Health in Space also includes video interviews with Canadian astronauts which offer first-hand insight into their experiences. A special section within the exhibition highlights astronaut David Saint-Jacques’ recent mission, from his selection and training to the experiments conducted while aboard the ISS.


Health in Space: Daring to Explore opens Monday, May 5th and runs until November 30, 2025. The Sidney Museum is located in the Lower Level of 2423 Beacon Avenue, the Olde Post Office Building, and is open everyday from 10:00am to 4:00pm. Admission is by donation.
