Astronomy


Saturn

The other day K and I went to a 90 min lecture in Astronomy at the Norwegian Aviation Museum.

It was held by Knut Jørgen Røed Ødegaard. He has been a lot in the Norwegian media the last two years due to an unusual amount of “space happenings”

It was fun and interesting for both K and me. Knut Ødegaard has a childish enthusiasm when he talks. He even made an attempt on the chicken dance as he explained how storms got started at Mars.

The auditorium was fully booked. I actually had to stand in the doorway to watch – and several people were rejected at the entry.

In my earlier days I attended a 48 hour evening course in astronomy.
