Description
An evening to learn to read the winter sky: from the myths of the constellations to practical orientation, up to guided observation with professional telescopes.
A team of expert astrophiles will accompany you step by step, with clear language and activities suitable even for those experiencing it for the first time. After an introduction to recognizing the main constellations and deep sky objects, we will move to the observation station: aligned telescopes, shared set-up, and group sessions to admire double stars, clusters, and nebulae (weather permitting).
There will also be space for “mindful instrumentation”: how to choose binoculars or a telescope, which apps to use, and how to set up an initial autonomous session.
The evening includes organized transportation and a light dinner/apéritif to enjoy the experience with ease and comfort.
