Youth Astronomical Circle — intermediate group

Are you fascinated by the infinite Universe, dream of learning the secrets of the night sky and want to learn how stars, planets and galaxies form? Wolszczan Planetarium of the Marine Science Center invites all young enthusiasts to join the new edition of the Youth Astronomical Circle for the winter semester.

The intermediate group is aimed at participants who want to expand their knowledge of the sky and explore the physical aspects of astronomy. The program includes the analysis of gravitational interactions and planetary motion, as well as practical tasks using real-world observations, including the Moon and the Sun.

Why join? • The care of an experienced enthusiast: The classes are led by the teacher and educator of astronomy, Tomasz Skowron, who passionately introduces the participants to the world of observation techniques and facilitates understanding of the latest space discoveries. • Modern technology and equipment: Thanks to digital sky simulators and professional optical equipment, observations take place outside the window regardless of the weather. There are also telescopes and the terrace of the Marine Science Center, allowing direct observations of celestial bodies. • Combining theory with practice: Meetings are not only theoretical knowledge, but above all demonstrations, discussions, simulations and the opportunity to get involved in research projects and events popularizing science. • Development of passion and scientific curiosity: It is an ideal space to meet peers with similar interests, developing scientific inquisitiveness and learning to look at the sky with passion.
