Know before you book

  • This activity takes place in ideal conditions, on an evening with a clear sky. The guide can cancel the event in case of bad weather and offer an alternative day.

What you can expect

We invite you for a special meeting by night; a meeting to look at the sky full of stars, planets and constellations visible from the Northern Hemisphere, from 45 degrees N, that is exactly half way between the Equator and the North Pole. The invitation is for those that desire to explore with us the night sky.

We will discover astronomy, the celestial sphere and the constellations through workshops and hands-on astronomy applications:

  • astronomical, evening and night observations
  • the basics of astronomy and outer space exploration
  • identifying the cardinal points
  • identification and observation of stars (Sun-sunspots, Moon, planets (Saturn,Jupiter), meteors, galaxies, star clusters, artificial satellites)
  • identification of constellations and asterisms
  • using applications for astronomy

We will look at the constellations visible all year-round in the Northern Hemisphere, like Ursa Major (Big Dipper), Ursa Minor(Little Dipper) with his Pole Star,Cassiopeia, Draco, Cepheus, and, depending on season, Andromeda, Pegasus, Perseus, Orion, Canis Major, Gemini, Hercules Ophiucus. And with the help of the telescope we will go into a new world, we'll see Messier and NGC objects, nebulae and star clusters that we will see with our own eyes, like probably never before.

Astronomical observations are conditioned by the weather!
