Chilenautas
Why have we looked for answers in the sky for thousands of years? Are we the only planet in the universe full of life? Will We be able to colonize Mars someday? Andrea Obaid, a science journalist, invites us to a trip through Chile looking for those answers. We'll visit the biggest telescopes in the world that are being built in Chile; we will know the places where preparations are made to live the total eclipses in the North and South of Chile; we will share indigenous peoples' cosmovision and we will witness how astronomy is an inspiration in art, music, theater, and photography, motivating adults and children. Come with us and enjoy "Chilenautas"!
