Astronomie-Beobachtungsabend

During the observations, guests will actively participate in practical parts and can explore the night sky using telescopes. The astronomical phenomena will be explained in a clear and understandable manner, tailored to the needs and prior knowledge of the guests. We will observe one to two reflecting telescopes (each with a diameter of 20 cm) and an astrografer (a special telescope for astrophotography) celestial objects such as planets, moons, galaxies, and nebulae. These practical observations will be complemented by a small presentation featuring self-created astrophotos and explanations of the photographed objects.

Bad weather: Rescheduled date will be on the following day.
