Journey to Atacama
An experience that connects with Andean culture.

 

The sky above San Pedro de Atacama is one of the clearest in the world, ideal for observing the stars, planets, and all sorts of astronomical phenomena, and at Explora we have the privilege of being able to observe them in detail from our own observatory located in our lands.

Inside a dome, the observatory has a powerful Meade 16” f/10 LX200R Advanced RD telescope with advanced optics and a 40 cm-diameter main mirror with high resolution and sharpness. Depending on weather conditions, you will be able to participate in a nocturnal observation of one of the most amazing shows nature has to offer.
