We will observe the deep sky through high-end, computerized and manual telescopes with which we will make an azimuthal sweep of the objects visible at night in Atacama, depending on the time of year we will be able to observe: planets, open and closed clusters , galaxies and stars. Where we can distinguish its shape and colors with great ease. Added to the explanatory scientific talk of our astronomy guides who seek to deliver in a dynamic and didactic way the scientific information of the universe. We will also be able to relate the visible constellations of the southern hemisphere with the help of a laser pointer. If you want to know about the Andean archaeo-astronomy of Latin America, you should request an explanation from Patricio, who is the speaker in the explanatory talk on how our American ancestors related the cosmos to the geographical and cultural zone.
