Lie down and look up at the stars in the sky

The other day, I looked up into the sky and saw a star like this,

and I asked myself what the star was.

There was an astronomical observation event at Fukui Nature Conservation Center
on the Rokuroshi highland (Ono City, Fukui Prefecture),

which they might have been able to answer my question.

 

The most recent will be held on April 17th (Sun) 2016, "Special astronomical observation :
Let’s watch Mercury, The moon, and Jupiter”

 

The sky we can see from a telescope of 80 centimeters in diameter looks powerful.

 

During this special astronomical observation, there is a new activity plan
“Lie down and look up at the stars in the sky” will be held.

The name of the activity sounds relaxing.

It would be very refreshing and soothing to just lie down,

look up into the sky and watch stars.

 

I would like to go there one day.
