We are pleased to share the unveiling of the telescope by our longstanding Ugandan partner organization, the National Curriculum Development Center.
This is a generous donation by the PACS e-Lab management in collaboration with the Jean Pierre Grootaerd SSVI program.
The team will utilize the telescope for Uganda’s teacher training program in astronomy. It will enable them to enhance astronomy education in Ugandan schools, as they continue participating in our citizen science projects.
The five new ESA career astronauts (class of 2022) and CERN reserve astronaut Slawosz Uznanski endorsed the telescope.
