Event Report:
- Story telling show, by Philippe Berthelot on Galileo's life called "1609, Galilée ou la première guerre des
étoiles" (1609, Galileo or the first star wars).
- Introduction to the night's sky, how to point out
- Night observation.
The weather was cloudy, but we managed to see Jupiter and its satellites briefly (before it got covered by
clouds), and also managed to identify a few constellations.
Approximately 40 people came to an evening organised by a local association, most of them were families.
The children enjoyed the story and were fascinated by the observation (or what we managed). It will lead to
the organisation of more astronomy sessions throughout the year.
