Overview
For barely the price of a cinema ticket, treat yourself to the most beautiful spectacle: the starry sky.
You will learn to recognize and observe the most beautiful stars.
You will better understand cosmic phenomena (formation of stars, movements of planets, etc.)
I will try to answer the many questions that are sure to come to you.
And you will dream a little in front of the immensity of the cosmos.
Exchange and conviviality will be the key words of this evening.
What's Included
Meeting And Pickup
Meeting point
Coming from Bordeaux, take the D106 towards Lège. Take the 1st exit (towards the D5) then follow "Le Temple" for about 4 km. On your left you will see a farm. It's here.
End Point
This activity ends back at the meeting point.
What To Expect
To begin this evening, I will offer you a commented slide show on a subject of your choice among those available on my website.
If children are present, a story is planned for them.
If there is time left before nightfall, I will then offer you a little astro-quiz.
You can also begin to discover the instruments and how they work.
And when the night comes, when the first stars light up, we can then observe with telescopes and binoculars the most beautiful objects of the moment: stars, planets, galaxies, nebulae, star clusters...
With a bit of luck you will be able to witness a passage of the iSS or see shooting stars.
Using a laser pointer I will give you a presentation of the constellations of the moment and if it is visible I will teach you to recognize the constellation of your astrological sign.
Each season has its sky. You will not see the same objects in summer as in winter. Summer is more pleasant but in winter the sky is blacker and purer.
And don't forget to dream...
