18 October, 2024 / Read time: 1 minute

For the second year and within the framework of National Science and Technology Week in Chile, ALMA organized a scientific fair in the central square of the commune of San Pedro de Atacama. Its purpose was to promote interest and education in the sciences, especially astronomy, as well as increase public awareness about the importance of the darkness of the night sky and the technological development taking place in the area. 

Here we present a short two-minute video that summarizes the experience.
