First Light of the CESAR Cebreros Telescope (CCT) The CCT will become a cornerstone of the CESAR programme, enabling students and educators to access advanced astronomical instrumentation
CESAR (Cooperation through Education in Science and Astronomy Research) is an educational program developed by the European Space Agency (ESA), the National Institute for Aerospace Technology (INTA), and Systems Engineering for Defense of Spain (ISDEFE). Its main goal is to bring space closer to classrooms, making use of the enormous potential of scientific data and the professional expertise of the entities involved in the project. We provide educational scientific resources and experiences that promote interest in astronomy and space, as well as future scientific careers, prioritizing diversity and inclusion for all people.
Del 23 al 26 de abril, el equipo CESAR ofrecerá una nueva edición de su curso dirigido a docentes de todas las etapas educativas con la temática dedicada a la Luna.
The European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) recently opened its doors to a group of 50 visitors representing museums, science centres, universities, and cultural institutions from across Spain and beyond.
