- W1614704807 abstract "We briefly review the outreach activities at the Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory, and in particular the annual open day for children called Bambineide. Visits and guided tours For decades the Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory in Florence, Italy, has provided outreach and educational activities especially directed to students at the primary and secondary school level. School visits usually take place during the morning. After a tour of the observatory, young students can observe sunspots on the solar photosphere with a historical, but completely refurbished refracting telescope (36 cm diameter), solar protuberances with a solar telescope with a narrow-band Hα filter, cosmic-ray tracks with a cloud chamber, and hear a lecture on the scientific research carried out by staff astronomers. About three times per month, the observatory is also open to the general public at night. Night-time observations with the historical refractor telescope (assembled circa 1866) show the craters of the Moon, the rings of Saturn, the moons of Jupiter, the Orion Nebula, passing comets and much more. The total number of visitors exceeds 15,000 people per year. The planetarium and the (planned) Museum of the Universe In collaboration with the Museum of History of Science and the Science Foundation of the city of Florence, the Observatory also runs a planetarium. In addition, the observatory promotes visiting lectures to schools by professional astronomers, activities with a portable Starlab planetarium, science exhibits and laboratories. Some recent interactive exhibits are Lights and Shadows of the Universe, Time in Nature, Interferometry and Adaptive Optics (the latter especially designed for high-school students). On the occasion of the Galileo’s celebrations during the International Year of Astronomy (2009), the Arcetri Observatory has proposed the construction of a Museum of the Universe. This would be an interactive science centre and planetarium, located in the Torre del Gallo, close to the observatory and to the house where Galileo spent his last years in exile. The Bambineide Once a year the Arcetri Observatory opens its gates to the children of Florence. The children are aged from four to eleven. This means the arrival of about 500 children and a comparable number of parents, an event called Bambineide (A Children’s Epic). The Bambineide exploits the fascination of astronomy to attract primary school children to a scientific research institution, where they can familiarise themselves with astronomical instrumentation and ask professional astronomers POSTERS | An open day for children: The Bambineide in Arcetri" @default.
