The evening and open-air program for July and August returns to CosmoCaixa with films, planetariums, lectures, shows, workshops and humorous scientific monologues, among other activities.
About Cosmonits 2024
For millennia, the observation of the stars and speculation about the rules that govern the universe have driven scientific and technological advances. This summer, CosmoCaixa invites you on a space journey with its Space Exploration CosmoNits. Attendees will be able to participate in activities that simulate space missions, including astronaut training and sample observation. In addition, there will be a lunar disco, astronautical shows, planetarium projections and narrations about the universe, allowing to live and think like astronauts and astronomy experts. And as usual, every night an open-air movie.
The activities are organized in 2 time slots aimed at different audiences:
- Family audiences: From 18:00 to 21:00 h.
- General public: From 20:30 to 23:30 h.
Within each time slot, CosmoCaixa has prepared different packs of experiences for us to enjoy a trip into space at our own pace.
