Astronomy for all
1h interactive introduction 1h30 observation
We organise astronomy discovery evenings throughout the year. Our events require no prior knowledge and are suitable for children aged 7 and over.
We place great emphasis on interaction between the visitor and the presenter, and support our explanations with clear examples and models.
A glimpse into the secrets of our space
In most venues, our events are accompanied by a dinner, which takes place between the introduction and the observation.
1h interactive introduction
(except certain evenings at the Gurten)
Discover, for example, how a telescope works or the structure of the Apollo rocket.
Explanations are adapted to suit the evening's event.
Dinner
Savour a delicious meal and enjoy a unique combination of astronomy and gastronomy.
1h30 of observation
Discover the planets Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and even distant galaxies through our professional telescopes, as well as an introduction to the constellations.
In the event of bad weather, the observation is replaced by an alternative programme (interactive constellation tour, astronomy quiz and interactive discussion).
