ASTRONOMY EXPERIENCE AT PUIG FRANCÓ | HOTEL WITH KILIAN VINDEL (Starlight Certification)
An immersive experience combining science, nature and night-sky observation at Puig Francó Hotel, in a privileged rural setting in Ripollès, surrounded by mountains, forests and the landscapes of the Camprodon Valley, where silence and natural darkness allow guests to experience the night sky in a truly unique way.
Activity content
— Conference: a visual journey through some of the great mysteries of the cosmos —Mars, the potentially habitable moons of the Solar System, the origin of water on Earth, the panspermia hypothesis, exoplanets, galaxies and black holes, the cosmic web that connects the Universe, its origins and the possibility of the multiverse— presented in an accessible, visual and scientifically rigorous way. A highly interactive experience, with constant exchange between the audience and the astronomer, in an open conversation and discussion format.
— Astronomical observation and astrophotography: weather permitting, we use state-of-the-art smart telescopes to explore the Moon, planets and deep-sky objects —star clusters, nebulae and galaxies— and discover, live, how an astronomical image is captured and built, introducing guests to astrophotography in a visual, engaging and surprising way.
In the event of rain or adverse weather conditions, we extend the immersive conference and turn the evening into an even deeper journey through the cosmos: an alternative that generates just as much enthusiasm among our guests as observing the night sky.
— Approximate duration: 1 hr 15 min – 1 hr 30 min.
— Suitable for all ages, with no prior knowledge required.
