Details

The Atacama Desert in northern Chile, with low humidity, high peaks and low light pollution, was designated by National Geographic as the best place on Earth to observe the firmament, placing Chile as the new benchmark for the so-called " culture of the skies”, astrotourism. We will make a presentation on the Andean worldview and lickan-antay, then we will observe the dark constellations, The Chakana Cross is the base of the Andean worldview (constellation of the llama, partridge, snake. But that can only be seen without the moon!) Then we will move on to the stage of modern constellations.
