In celebration of the release of Secrets of the Universe, Perimeter Institute and K2 Studios will send one lucky winner on a trip to the telescopes atop Maunakea!

It is said that there are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on the world’s beaches.

You might get to experience the grandeur of stars and sandy beaches with a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Hawaii and its telescopes atop Maunakea!

The Ultimate Astronomy Experience will fly the winner and a guest to Hawaii for a rare personal tour of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope and the Submillimeter Array, which contributed to the landmark image of a black hole revealed earlier this year by the Event Horizon Telescope collaboration.

Perimeter Institute and K2 Studios are offering this money-can’t-buy prize to celebrate the upcoming release of Secrets of the Universe, a 3D scientific adventure coming soon to an IMAX screen near you. The film, produced by K2 in association with Perimeter, explores how cutting-edge theories and experiments are revealing profound new truths about the universe, from quantum to cosmos.

Don’t forget to sign-up for the latest updates on Secrets of the Universe screenings, more contests, and other cool news for science lovers.

Update: The sweepstakes are now closed.
