Galilean Nights

Fortress of Oradea, October 23-th 2009

I have organized in the Fortress of the town the activity "Galilean Nights".
The work should have two parts: a multimedia presentation in the city and out with telescopes in Independence Square, near the statue of Mihai Eminescu.
Unfortunately, the clouds above the city were still stubborn and stayed in the sky, making impossible any observation.

The evening started with presentations in PowerPoint:
1. Galileo Galilei-student Georgiana Gavra
2. Jupiter and Galilean satellites - students Ioana Madalina Jipa
3. Saturn-student Anca Madalina Negru and Mantu Madalina
4. The Moon-student Ioana Matiuta.

The cloud sky not allowed us to observe the constellations, but I watched a film about the constellations October -December.
The evening ended with the presentation of beautiful pictures made Vesselny Tibi.

The students participated in the activity of High School "Aurel Lazar," CN "Emauil Gojdu" CT. "M. Viteazul " and of course, children from "Oltea Doamna" School. Were also present astroclub Meridian 0 members and a guest of Salonta Mr. Matias Csukas.
