ACTIVITIES ON COMMUNITY

In addition to being an application and research center where scientific researches are carried out, it also undertakes the task of introducing and popularizing astronomy and science to the society. For this purpose, Science - Society Activities are organized. Visiting programs and science education activities are organized for anyone interested in astronomy, providing information about celestial events, celestial bodies and the structure of the universe. In addition, various events are organized for all segments of the society on special days when there are important celestial events throughout the year. On the other hand, institutional visits are accepted within the framework of a certain program, primarily to educational institutions.
