Since its first images in 2022, the James Webb Space Telescope has transformed our view of the universe – and some of its most breathtaking discoveries have come from peering into the hearts of stellar nurseries where new stars are born. Join us on Saturday, June 13th, as Prof. Els Peeters shares how JWST is revolutionizing our understanding of star formation. Discover what this extraordinary telescope is revealing about the gas, dust, and chemistry within these stellar nurseries, and what these findings tell us about the origins of stars and planetary systems like our own. 🌟

If the skies are clear, we’ll have our telescopes ready for night sky observing. Engage with expert astronomers and ask your burning questions – this event is perfect for anyone interested in the wonders of the night sky, whether you’re a seasoned astronomer or just starting out. 🌟

Admission is completely FREE and open to all. No registration required! Drop by for a unique evening under the stars – ideal for families, students, seasoned stargazers, and anyone curious about the universe.
