Telescope Viewing at UPTC

GAIA continues to take part in the advocacy of the Manila Street Astronomers as we setup at the amphitheater of Ayala Mall's UP Town Center. These activities are geared towards sidewalk astronomy as well as providing the members with an exposure to public events. Also joining the cast and crew of the MSA  event was the University of the Philippines Astronomical Society and the Junior Philippine Physics Society.

The guild proudly supports Manila Street Astronomers' goal of uniting the local astronomical community and advocating astronomy and other STEM areas.

GAIA joins Manila Street Astronomers

The members of the guild were at Blue Bay Walk last Saturday (28 Nov 2015) to assist and facilitate the free telescope viewing of the Manila Street Astronomers.

The Manila Street Astronomers is a non-profit outreach astronomy group composed of volunteers from the local astronomical community. As such, the guild has committed to take part and assist the MSA in anyway possible. This endeavor allows the members of the guild to reinforce the outreach and observation side as well as serve as training ground for developing public speaking skills by engaging participants in the free telescope viewing.
