Khushi, an Indian girl living in Latvia, dreams of becoming an astronomer one day. She would like to work for NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, USA).
What should be done to realize this dream? To find out, let`s go to the Museum of the University of Latvia and climb the Astronomical Tower! Our guide is astronomer and Museum expert Ilgonis Vilks.
In this interesting journey, we learn not only about Khushi`s future profession. We also find out how many steps lead from the basement of the University of Latvia to the highest point. Let`s find out also which animal the telescope resembles. Also, why study old stars and what it can tell us about the future.
Thank you to the Museum of the University of Latvia and personally to Ilgonis Vilks for the cooperation in making the video.
Come with us on an astronomical adventure!
