We will gather in the Regocijo Square, in Cusco's downtown, to take the vehicle that will take us to the ecological reservation of Llaullipata, very close to the ruins of Sacsayhuamán. There, in the planetarium rooms, we will have an introduction talk about quechua astronomy, in which we will receive information about the Andean man and the cosmos. Then, we will go to the dome where a virtual projection of the sky is made, in which we will be able to identify the quechua constellations, very different to the ones identified by today's men. Finally, there is a telescope observation that will be made if the weather conditions of the moment allow it. If the sky is clear, we will identify the quechua constellations, and celestial objects of the universe that are not visible with the naked eye. Once ended the observation, we will begin our return to Cusco's downtown.
