1 November 2025: Stad van Sterre (Afr)

Experience the Milky Way like never before. Although it's a beautiful sight to the naked eye, our view of it is very limited. Join us as we explore our 'city of stars', its spectacular spiral structure and its vast size. Discover the role of dark matter and explore the colourful star clusters and gas nebulae in the disk of the Milky Way. Fly into the core, where our own super-massive black hole is located, and far beyond the Milky Way to view the recently discovered Laniakea supercluster surrounding the Milky Way. Travel into the far future to witness the inevitable collision of our Milky Way with our nearest spiral neighbour, Andromeda. The presentation is in Afrikaans.
