The kot-à-projet organizes regular sky observations, with the support of Professor André Fuzfa.
Du Koté des Étoiles is a project-without-a-kot launched by students who share the same passion for science and astronomy. Through its activities, the kot-à-projet aims to promote astronomy and the popularization of space to as many people as possible, including the University of Namur student community, staff members and the general public. To carry out their mission, kàp students are fortunate to be able to collaborate regularly with Professor André Fuzfa, and benefit from a marvellous tool: the Antoine Thomas s.j. astronomical observatory. Situated in the heart of the campus, the observatory enables students to discover the sky, learn about research and photography, and much more. A project that takes on its full meaning with the integration of the University of Namur into the European space alliance UNIVERSEH.
The activities of the Koté des Étoiles are diverse and based on numerous collaborations developed over the years. Indeed, the kàp brings together members who have been part of former kots-à-projet such as Kap for Science, Astromath or Kotient. Students take part, for example, in observation sessions for the general public, and in outreach activities for the Printemps des Sciences and the Fête de l'Université.
Astronomy is also taught at the University of Namur.
