The Outdoor Exhibition

Every year there is a themebased, outdoor exhibition in the Renaissance Garden, surrounding the Uraniborg area.

This year's outdoor exhibition takes basis in the International Year of Astronomy of 2009, so Arne Ardeberg, Professor of Astronomy at the University of Lund, has been asked to produce the exhibition. The theme of the exhibition was obvious - Modern Astronomy, with a focus on a project called E-ELT.

E-ELT is an abbreviation for “European Extremely Large Telescope”; a project that Arne Ardeberg leads. The exhibition tells about this extremely large telescope that will be built during 2015 and placed somewhere in Europe. The exhibition focuses on telling the benefits of a telescope of this size: What can we see in the universe with this tool that we can not see today? What can we expect to find?

The exhibition opens: May 9
