Summary:

On March 30 and 31, 2019 another festival “Open Days” was held in the Zvenigorod Observatory of INASAN, organized by the Institute together with the Children’s Art Center of Zvenigorod. This time the number of guests turned out to be unusually large, and reached seven hundred people.

During the sessions, the guests of the festival visited the telescopes of the observatory and listened to popular science lectures. The graduate students of INASAN traditionally tried their strengths as lectures. Unfortunately, the weather allowed conducting an observational program only on Saturday, but it was quite successful.

Traditionally, the members of the Moscow Astronomical Club also helped to organize the observations.
