The Summer Sky with the Moon

An ideal session to get to know the sky and the stars that you can see this same night and the following ones. So that you can continue to practice yourself afterwards. How to find your way in the sky, how to recognize the main constellations, what are the main guest stars of the current season, how the sky and the main stars move.

  

The activity, which lasts almost two hours, is divided into three parts:

  

1- Planetarium Session: Inside the Planetarium it is night, we notice the apparent movement of the sky that helps us orient ourselves, we identify bright stars, know constellations, recognize planets... Without realizing it, a whole night

2- Observation of the sky with the naked eye: We will learn to orient ourselves and use a celestial chart. And with the help of a tellurium and a laser pointer we will learn to locate the stars and constellations currently visible.

3- Telescope observation: The Moon and Jupiter.

 

Adult price: 22 Euros

Up to 12 years: 16 euros

- If bad weather is forecast the day before, the activity will be canceled (stay tuned for the mail!).
