2-3.04.2009 Our school looked like a camp: pizza, a cinema room, sleeping bags, cameras combined with good moods of participants. Altogether 48 students took part in watching the night sky. All night, they took turns to watch the sky through the school Meade 10 telescope and a small telescope on the school yard. We saw craters on the Moon, planets - Venus and Saturn (before sunrise), M42 nebula in Orion with a characteristic trapezium, M3 and M53 globular clusters. During the day, another group of students watched the Sun through the H-alpha filter. The weather was fine and all the observations were carried out successfully.
