Every year, the Ebro Observatory celebrates Science Week, simultaneously with all the country's research centers. This is always a good opportunity to bring our activities closer to society. Normally, we hold an Open House. This year, due to the pandemic, we will not be able to organize it, and we have opted for a digital format. Below we have prepared a video that allows you to see our facilities and learn about our most significant activities.
