The Night of the Falling Stars
Mystery Tour
The ‘Perseid’ shooting stars: every year we can observe them in August.
We invite you to Monte Romano where with “Mystery Leader” and “Let’s Explore the Universe” we can observe the meteors with the naked eye and make our wishes. Thanks to the presence of experienced astrophiles, we will have the opportunity to recognise the constellations of the summer sky with a laser pointer and observe through the telescope, Jupiter with its moons, Saturn with its wonderful rings and our beautiful Moon with its mountains and craters.
We will find ourselves near an old hillside cemetery, a place that evokes our ancestors’ tales of fatuous fires and the many legends associated with this period and these places. Thanks to nocturnal suggestions, we will try to return with our minds to the atmosphere of the past and perhaps be able to observe something unusual…
COMPULSORY REGISTRATION
