Spa-goers treated to a dose of astronomy

12 October 2009

Throughout IYA2009 astronomy events are being hosted across the world in venues more varied than previously thought possible. Now news is circulating of an observing event in Vienna held at a spa. Visitors were treated to telescopic views of Jupiter and commentaries via a speaker system.
