Colleagues from DTPA prepared an afternoon program for children from the suburban camp by the South Moravian Center for International Mobility (JCMM) in Brno. The weather was not very good for astronomy, but even though the clouds arrived soon, the children could see how the solar telescope was assembled and how important it is to keep eyes safe when using it. The children also made a paper sundial with the help of a compass. The weather worsened so much that the children had to move inside, where a lecture was prepared for them about the threats lurking in the depths of space and why it is good to look for and study them.
