Observe the sky

During these astronomy evenings in Provence, you will be able to observe, discuss and even photograph celestial bodies using Olivier’s telescopes. An original way to look up at the stars and better understand what makes up the night sky.

 
The Moon: observed in close-up, with its reliefs, lunar maria and craters. You may also be able to take photos with your smartphone.
 
Planets and stars: Jupiter, Saturn, Mars and Venus depending on the season, as well as some of the most remarkable stars in the sky.
 
Celestial objects: nebulae, star clusters, galaxies and other astronomical wonders visible depending on observation conditions.

Olivier’s tip: the best time for this activity is during the ten days before the full Moon or the week after. These periods offer excellent conditions for observing lunar reliefs and making the most of the telescope experience.
