In the east (I mean the East of \u00a0Slovakia) the asterisk is much more than, for example, in western Slovakia or central Slovakia.\u00a0We can name the observatory on Lomnicky peak in High Tatras, observatories and planetariums in Humenne, Presov, Kosice, Medzev, Michalovce.\u00a0Svidnik, Trebisov.\u00a0The Astronomical Observatory at the Nova Kolonica has an exceptional position.<\/p>\n

The sky is our treasure, \u00a0it is or what our grandparents have seen<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"astrotourism<\/p>\n

Igor Kudzej speaks passionately while visiting this Astronomical Observatory.\u00a0It is true that in tourism, popularization, attractiveness and education go hand in hand.\u00a0And so we come to the possibility of visiting the\u00a0Dark Sky Park in the N Kolonicke sedlo <\/em><\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0It is a park that is part of nearby parks in Ukraine and Poland.\u00a0Hills in the territory of Ukraine and Poland can be seen from the Kolonica \u00a0with the naked eye.\u00a0The three-park create one of Europe’s largest dark sky parks.\u00a0The need for a large park of dark sky Igor Kudzej argues that in one small park the darkness is diminishing, in a large park the darkness has a chance to keep up.<\/p>\n

Of course, even in the dark sky park, they understand \u00a0that the use of light cannot be stopped at all.\u00a0When people need it, they should shine under their feet and not into the sky.<\/p>\n

\"astrotourism<\/p>\n

There is also a nature trail in Nova Sedlica in Poloniny.\u00a0It consists of seven stops.\u00a0In summer time, I\u00a0shall \u00a0definitely choose to see the so-called \u00a0light pollution cemetery, which is in the village of Zboj in the center of Poloniny UNESCO national park.<\/p>\n

It is a fact that the Park of the Dark Sky is indeed in an area where there is mainly nature and nothing more.\u00a0In this case it’s fine, light smog is an unknown term.<\/p>\n

Observatory, Planetarium “Kolonica<\/strong>\u00a0”<\/p>\n

The conditions for observation are very good in Kolonica.\u00a0During the day you can watch the sunrise, sunshine and \u00a0sunset, \u00a0at night the stars.\u00a0To observe natural and astronomical phenomena, not only astronomy specialists but also ordinary people are interested.\u00a0It is not in vain that we are talking about astrotourism in tourism.\u00a0Solar eclipse, lunar eclipse, perzeid meteor shower, meteorite rain – this is a heavenly theater directed by nature, our sky.<\/p>\n

As it is also a scientific workplace, the necessary modern technologies are also available for observing the Current Atmosphere Model.\u00a0What is closer, today’s second largest national telescope with a main mirror diameter of 1 meter, will show observations of variable stars.\u00a0Incidentally, the staff at the Colonial Saddle Observatory have already discovered them 20 and are registered under the KOL Code.\u00a0They project a virtual night sky at the planetarium, as well as films in full-screen projection.\u00a0MARS is a model of an astronomical rotating station for group observation of 20 people.\u00a0A great idea is the touch sky for the blind.<\/p>\n

\"astrotourism<\/p>\n

Special days\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

March 17 is every year the official Day of the Stellar and Planetarium.\u00a0If it is nice, the observation will certainly be interesting.\u00a0If the weather is not 100%, the opportunities will certainly be enough in the next period.\u00a0During this year, nature prepares three regular meteor swarms, two solar eclipses, or even the passing of Mercury in front of the Sun.<\/p>\n

What about tourism – astrotourism?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Definitely just soft, in small groups.\u00a0Certainly, significant days of natural phenomena mean an increased arrival of as many as 400 observations – lusty people during the day.\u00a0In the Astronomical Observatory, they realize that tourists need to know about the Dark Sky Park.\u00a0At the moment, they themselves are actively communicating with the Polish organizers to “import” the Poles who visit their Polish side in large numbers.\u00a0A valuable and certainly successful initiative.\u00a0However, it should be noted that marketing should be done by the institutions, though perhaps not with sufficient staff and financial background.\u00a0I am referring to the regional and regional tourism organization.<\/p>\n

\"astrotourism<\/p>\n

Yet, tourists who come to the observatory need water, respectively.\u00a0smaller snacks.\u00a0They should think of this task, ie setting up an environmentally friendly “soft” outpatient sale on the access road to the observatory in the village.\u00a0It is their responsibility.\u00a0Reaching out to potential retailers and souvenirs shouldn’t be a problem.<\/p>\n
