 s of Budapest and is home not only to the capital’s most beautiful fores
 ts but also to its largest observatory. Hungary’s largest astronomical r
 esearch institute (HUN-REN RCAES) is located at the observatory\, we can a
 lso find Budapest’s largest telescopes here. In the beginning of the pro
 gram\, we will take a walk in the park of the astronomical institute\, sur
 rounded by ancient trees. We learn about the romantic history of the histo
 rical buildings\, as well as the most exciting research currently underway
  in the institute. At the Budapest Dome\, we will visit the city’s large
 st telescopes\, and we get to know the history of the observation instrume
 nts and the stories of the astronomers. With the help of the giant telesco
 pe\, we will examine the Sun\, admire the structure of sunspots\, and obse
 rve fountain-like solar prominences. Finally\, in the lecture hall\, we wi
 ll explore the dazzling world of meteorites. We will discuss the story of 
 shooting stars\, where they come from\, and how the Solar System was forme
 d. With our polarizing microscopes we will project and examine the rainbow
 -colored crystals of various meteorite types. Finally\, we will touch the 
 billion years old meteorites\, to feel how heavy these space stones really
  are. Our program is in English\, it takes 2 hours\, and is recommended fr
 om age 12. Address: 1121 Budapest\, Konkoly-Thege Miklos u. 15-17. Access
