Another important but international union is the accession to the European project Trails in blue the professor Erica Meone With which our association cooperates in the “Sea of ​​Stars” series of events. Certainly the most important goal of all the members was to take over the management of the Astronomical Observatory Viseggi mountainHaving built it in the 1980’s, we now have 12 years of management to restore it to its 90’s splendor, which we plan to open in the spring. Excellent work has also been done on the light pollution front with two thematic conferences on the subject in the municipalities of Val di Vara (we mention that we are a regional delegation and have an office granted by the municipality of Borghetto di Vara) and Varese Ligure, as well as dozens of reports on incompatible systems, which Given the unfavorable historical period, the environment will also help. Member growth was also phenomenal for the proposed events, and we closed the year with sixty members and many children, showing that astronomy is within everyone’s reach.
