Noites no Observatório

Noites no Observatório invited the public to experience the Universe, on the last Saturday of every month, through public lectures and observations of the night sky with telescopes.

This project of Instituto de Astrofísica e Ciências do Espaço (IA) started in the late 2009. From November 2015 until February 2020, when it was discontinued, these sessions were organised in partnership with the Planetário Calouste Gulbenkian.
