Valeria Cappelli | INAF
CAP 2010 – March 16th 2010
May 2009 – June 2010
25 science centers, museums and
astronomical observatories
30.000 children involved
We are pleased to introduce you the actors:
Phineas& Ferb
The others:
Galileo and the Telescope
...and the Moon!
easy to observe, easy to teach, connected to Galileo
First astronomical kit: the board game
To conquer the Moon!
And suddenly the Sky changed!
Galileo, the Starry Messanger
Learning to observe: are you able to catch the Moon?
Moon Identity Card and a Mooncatcher
Fit the Moon in one card:
three “S” to communicate with children
Simplicity, Synthesis, Stylistics
Have you ever seen… a surfer on the Moon?
The challenge:
strike a balance
between
entertainment and
education of
astronomy
Some lessons learned…
• different media to
communicate with children
• the possible tradeoff between
education and entertainment
• observation: the best “tool” to
bring children closer to
astronomy

True! Astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin landed on the
lunar surface aboard the "Eagle", a small half that
broke away from the artificial satellite "mother" Apollo
11, which had brought them from the Earth to the
Moon.
