This academic outreach initiative aims to engage the broader community in the observational sciences by offering the rare opportunity to explore celestial bodies through the largest telescope in Lebanon. Attendees will observe the Moon, Jupiter, and additional astronomical objects of interest, guided by expert astrophysicists who will provide scientific commentary and respond to public inquiries.

Open to all, the event is designed to foster curiosity, encourage dialogue, and inspire future explorations of the cosmos.
