This immersive experience is not just about observing the stars; it is a profound encounter with the universe, set against the backdrop of some of the most pristine dark skies on Earth.
The Beauty of Asterisms ⁂
During the tours, guides also explore the concept of asterisms ⁂—unofficial groupings of stars that are not formally recognized as constellations but are nonetheless captivating. These formations range from simple patterns to elaborate star clusters, and while their boundaries are not officially defined, they provide engaging subjects for both amateur and professional astronomers.
