Night sessions start at the Gretchko Planetarium in Nizhny Novgorod.

      The Nizhny Novgorod Planetarium named after Georgy Grechko is launching a special evening program (6+). From July 27 to August 1, there will be nightly sessions with stargazing, film screenings, and lectures every day, as reported by the Mayor of Nizhny Novgorod, Yuri Shalabaev. Guests will be able to choose where to go and move freely between venues, creating their own route. The program includes observations of celestial objects at the observatory and on the roof of the planetarium, special film screenings in the Large Star Hall that are not part of the main repertoire, lectures on astronomy, and an introduction to the meteorite collection. The Department of Culture reported that, weather permitting, everyone will be able to view the starry sky through a telescope. Every evening, a new selection of films and programs about space will also be shown in the Large Star Hall. In the "Astronomy" hall, visitors will learn about constellations, see the starry sky with the help of a special projector, and get acquainted with the meteorite collection. It was previously reported that scientists are recording a sharp increase in solar activity. NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has channels on Telegram and MAX.
