His journey will include naked-eye Astronomy, tips and hacks on identifying stars and constellation storytelling, introduction to the celestial dance of planets, satellites, navigation, the Universe, Galaxy and beyond.
You will then observe through the professional-grade telescope objects such as the Moon and its craters and seas, Saturn’s rings, the moons of Jupiter, Mars and Venus, the Orion Nebula, star clusters, double and triple stars, deep space objects such as galaxies and the fabulous Milky Way. You might even see shooting stars if you are lucky!
