Follow in the footsteps of ancient Arabs in this astronomy exhibition. See the beauty of the night sky and learn how to be guided by it. This is an interactive experience that takes the ancient Arab methods of navigating through the desert by following the constellations of the night sky both to find directions and calculate time. By drawing on their methods, we will learn about their contributions to the field of astronomy — their extraordinarily accurate star observation tools, precise calendars and so much more.
Join us to learn about Arab astronomical instruments, their background stories, features and significance.
