New content incoming: help us refine it :)
Hi everyone, we have a new educational activity coming up, and we would like to have your input.

The upcoming activity is an exploration activity, just like our previous "Solar System Exploration" activity, but this time it will be at the scale of the Milky Way, our very own galaxy. This new activity will allow you to explore the Milky Way, perceive its scale, and zoom in on interesting features like nebulae, star clusters, or black holes (Sagittarius A*).

So, here comes the big question: what specific object would you like to see in this new "galactic level" activity? It can be your favorite nebula for instance.

There is no wrong answer, and if you have questions about this new activity, this is also the right place to ask :)

Take care

Thanks Medic:

- Messier objects definitely (a lot of them ^^)
- Barnard's star and Alpha Centauri: more likely in another "stellar neighborhood" activity, with a smaller scale.
- Polar star (North star): good idea
- Orion belt: yes, absolutely, quite a show!

beetlegeuse! swollen and misshapen and because we might not be lucky enough to witness the event in real life... why not feature a supernova and give beetlegeuse a proper farewell!
