## About this plan

The Bogotá Planetarium is hosting one of the most anticipated space exhibits of the year. 'Eyes on the Universe' is an international show from the American Museum of Natural History in New York, making its first stop in Colombia. It is a free activity in Bogotá that lets you see the universe up close.

The show brings together images captured by three giants of astronomy: the Hubble telescope, the James Webb Space Telescope, and the Gaia mission. You will tour pictures of our galactic neighborhood and deep views of the distant cosmos, with explanations curated by two of the most respected scientific institutions in the world.

The exhibit also kicks off a new partnership between the Bogotá Planetarium, Idartes, and the New York museum to bring astronomy closer to the public. It is a rare chance to understand what we see when we look at the stars and how that knowledge is built.
