  2. Participants in Polish HOU: • Pilot-programme schools (~25) • Teacher-training colleges (Cracow Pedagogical Universites) • Astronomy Clubs, Planetaries ... (MOA, Almukantarat, ... ) • Unregistered users who benefit from the online resources, but who do not participate directly.

  3. Example of HoU grow activity • „Coronado” case • Scientific picnic • Asteroids discovery

  4. „Trade” Coronado filter price = ~50 school visiting MOA webcam movie

  5. Let people know about HoU

  6. Asteroid discovery

  7. Example of HoU grow activity • „Coronado” case • Scientific picnic • Asteroids discovery Another method ???

  8. Polish HoU activities: • Repeat Eratosthenes' experiment to measure the radius of the Earth • Home-built PVC telescopes and spectrographs • Supernovae programme and web-portal • Eclipsing binary stars programme and web-portal • Minor planets discovery programme • Webcam astronomy (see C08 tal at 15:30) • Use of INO (see C09 tal at 15:45) and LCOGTN robotic optical telescopes • (Planned) use of robotic radio telescopes • Simulations of Solar cycles observaions • Theoretical exercises based on existing observations • Discovering features on Earth using Google Earth

  9. Repeat Eratosthenes' experiment to measure the radius of the Earth

  10. PVC TelescopePractical, Versatile, Cheap Telescope Pipes ~17 $ Obective 6 or 50 $ Eyepiece ~ 50 $

  11. Home-built spectrographs

  12. Use of LCOGTN telescope - Imaging - RGB colour imaging with filters - Photometry (variable stars and supernovae; H-R diagrams of clusters) • Time-lapse movies (e.g. minor planets; moons of Jupiter)

  13. Supernovae programme and web-portal
