Description

We start by picking up our guest from all the local camps in Disi Area around 7:45 Pm in winter. (Summer times change, please check with us). The adventure starts with a 20-minute presentation that takes you on a journey that sheds light on the cosmos. Anchored in our solar system we venture out in the Milky Way and then travel to all parts of the Universe. As the presentation ends, we step out into the real world and begin our trek across the sky. We split our guests in 2 equal groups: Group 1 Follow the light of the green laser surrounded by a candle track. A professional astronomer takes you around the night sky, explaining how to find directions in the night through the stars’ system. Then explaining the daily and annual rotation of stars. We show our guests various constellations and horoscopes with the aid of the laser. We explain ancient mythologies about the sky from various cultures. This session takes 35 minutes. Group 2 Will spend time on large telescopes, computerized with GPS locating systems. They see various targets like: Galaxies, Nebulae, planets and its moons, the Earth Moon, Binary stars, etc. The session is guided by another professional astronomer. This session takes 35 minutes.
