This activity was organized by the University Group of the Astronomical Research – GUIA -, group affiliated to the Student Development Department, and it started with a talk about eclipses and after this, all of the participants and invitees, together with the Meade LX-200 telescope and binoculars, went to the campus gardens and watched the beautiful astronomic event.

At the beginning, the sky was a little cloudy but then this wasn’t a problem and the eclipse was enjoyed by all the people who were there that night.
