The current gate closure time is 7 p.m. After that time, a code is needed for park entry (& access to the astronomy field).

The GCG appreciates the outreach we do very much, because they make ususally their reservations a year in advance! :-) So this year Frank and Theo were there again for their summer camp. A cloudy and rainy day, so we made some presentations inside and the kids were really awed by what we showed them. We took them on a flight through the solar system, demonstrated how small we are on Earth compared to the solar system and some other astronomical concepts. We finished by what happens on the Sun and some sun images we took ourselves, including the challenge to locate the transit of the ISS in a movie. Great group, great kids and great leaders! Thanks for inviting us every year!
