Reception a bit cold at the agency but they are very serious. We were received by a Spanish speaking astronomer which is obviously passionate about his work. We took the time to see the sky with naked eye and receive explanations about the basis of astronomy. There are several different telescopes, which he calibrated manually to allow us to see different celestial bodies. They move quite fast so you have to be quick. We had a debrief session with a hot chocolate. Overall, a very instructive and friendly activity. The SPACE observatory is self-funded so please support and book with them :-)
