We were so happy when we learned about this a month ago. This was on the bay grounds of Mall of Asia. We accidentally learned of this when we decided to take a walk by the bay to exercise. The company who set this up is Astrocamp. Follow them on twitter if you wish to know the schedules of the viewing :) They have all these technical equipments that will aid the watchers see the stars & planets at a certain time of the day, or would you rather say night. They're only operational at night which is nice because going out at that time means less heat. They even have brochures that they give out for free if you wish to know more about the twinkling lights at night. For viewing purposes, a reference of when the stars or planets is displayed on top of their front desk. Grace here was all giggly & couldn't wait to check them out :D
That's a very very huge telescope. Is something that huge really called a telescope or something else? We saw Saturn from this telescope :D Saturn looked like a a white almond with rings around it. Yup, we saw the rings! It was so close that 1 would think that it can be touched :)))
You see that white globe over or us?.. That's rotational! Sir I forgot his name, who manned it, will just press a remote button & it will rotate to the other side so that Mr. Unnamed can rotate the telescope easily. It was so amazing!
Look! Everyone can't help but view, too.
This telescope is for us to view the stars. The big 1 inside the globe's for the planets :)
