Open House Day 2018

Two ESO representatives wait to give guided tours of the Headquarters to visitors on Open House Day (OHD) 2018, which took place on Saturday 13 October. Along with other institutes based at the science research centre in Garching, ESO participates in this event where the public are invited to explore the centre and learn about the research being conducted here. On OHD 2018, visitors were also able to explore the new Supernova Planetarium & Visitor Centre, which opened just a few months earlier in April. In addition to guided tours, activities included live experiments, talks from ESO scientists and a live connection to ESO's sites in Chile.
