Tras algo más de un mes sin escribir nada por aquí, al fin he vuelto de tierras colombianas. Como no podía ser de otra manera me puse en contacto con el Grupo astronómico local, llamado Grupo "Halley" de astronomía, para poder observar el cielo desde esas latitudes, tal y como comenté en el anterior artículo.
Dicho grupo nació en la ciudad de Bucaramanga, allá por el año 1986 con motivo de la visita del cometa Halley, y como dice en su blog, fue como un grupo de profesores de la Universidad Industrial de Santander, que aparece en fotografía adjunta
, la Profesora Blanca Inés Prada,el Profesor Bernardo Mayorga, el Profesor Augusto Lopez ,entre otros , ademas de estudiantes de pregrado y astronomos aficionados convocan una serie de actividades con motivo de dicho evento astronómico.
Actualmente y tras más de 25 años se dedican a trabajos de Astrofísica, la Instrumentación y la Geología Planetaria entre otros, lo cual denota el alto nivel alcanzado.
Antes de desplazarme a Bucaramanga, me puse en contacto con Jimmy Mantilla (a la derecha de mí en la foto), coordinador de Divulgación del grupo. Muy amablemente me contestó que cuando llegase me acercase a la sede situada en la Universidad Industrial de Santander. Una vez allí concretemos algunas de las actividades. La principal sería la observación con motivo de las Perseidas el día 10 de Agosto. Así que llegado me presenté allí. Dispusieron un autobús de unas 40 personas que iba completo. ![]()
Tras un largo paseo por carretera de montaña nos elevamos a unos 3.400 mts, y nos detuvimos en la cabaña que se había alquilado al efecto. El lugar llamado "FrayLejones" es una maravilla. Llegamos ya de noche, y lo primero que hice fue localizar Júpiter y las constelaciones zodiacales que aquí tenemos a baja altura. La verdad que es una suerte tener Júpiter a semejante altura, así como Sagitario y Scorpio. Tras la adaptación a la oscuridad pertinente me dispuse a dar el paseo pertinente con los prismáticos por la Vía Láctea. Mientras tanto, y tras repartir unos planisferios acordes a la latitud del lugar, el resto de los asistentes asistía a las explicaciones y reconocimiento de constelaciones. También se emitieron unos vídeos sobre evolución estelar que hicieron las delicias de los asistentes. Ya más tarde el frío empezó a arreciar, pero las bebidas calientes hicieron su efecto. La noche se pasó rápido, sobre todo cuando se está en grata compañía.
Espero volver a repetir la experiencia la próxima que vuelva.
Desde aquí agradezco a los miembros del Grupo "Halley" la oportunidad que me han dado de poder disfrutar del cielo de esas latitudes.

Cualquiera diría viendo la foto que está sacada en Agosto :-P
Tienes que contarnos más de cómo se ve el cielo desde esas latitudes. ¿Viste las nubes de Magallanes?
Enhorabuena por el viaje y gracias por compartirlo.
Pués no, no las ví. Ya nates de ir en Cartes Du Ciel estuve viendo si las podría ver, y allí me dijeron que se veían aunque muy bajas. Mi ilusión era ver el cúmulo omega Centauri, pero tampoco pudo ser. Me tuve que conformar con las vistas de prismaticos y ver Sagitario y El Escorpión a gran altura, que eso si fue una pasada.
Qué suerte, Javi, ver la Vía Láctea en esa posición tiene que ser todo un espectáculo.
¡Gracias por la crónica y un abrazo!
Que bien Javi, espero nos cuentes algo más y nos enseñes más imágenes, no..???
hola javi ¿como van las cosas por alla? me gusto mucho lo que plasmaste en tu articulo redasctas muy bien que rico que la pasaron bien y ojala esa experiencia se repitiera muy pronto y mil veces mejor...aca los pensamos mucho un beso enrome para ti y mary

Depending on what your destination is and how long you plan on making your trip for, the airfare may be the priciest expense. Because of this, finding a great deal on the airfare becomes extremely important. The more money you are able to save on the plane tickets, the more money you will be able to use toward your actual vacation.
When it comes to purchasing your airline tickets, the sooner the better. This goes for basically anywhere you plan on traveling. When you purchase a ticket sooner, lets say several months before the trip, there will be less of a demand, which will drive the price of the ticket down. However, on the flip side, as the day of the desired flight approaches, the flight's seats will begin to fill up. As fewer and few seats become available, the higher the demand will be, which will drive the price up. Booking the flight in as far advance as you can may save you hundreds of dollars in the long run.
Flying during the middle of the week is generally the cheapest time to fly. Fewer people travel during mid week than on Friday through Sunday. If at all possible, fly out on a Tuesday or Wednesday. You may actually find prices significantly less expensive on the Wednesday than the Sunday of the same week.
Looking for airfare online will probably be your best be at securing the cheapest possible flight price. There are multiple booking agencies which specialize in finding the cheapest airfare. However, to save time, go to Bing.com, which offers a comprehensive flight search option. Bing will search other travel sites (Expedia, Priceline, Hotwire, etc.) and display the cheapest flight form each site. From here you will be able to decide which website offers the best deal.
Students can often find discounted airfare by visiting STA.com. This is the Student Travel Association, and it can sometimes find less expensive airfare for the traveling student. This isn't always the case, but it doesn't hurt to look.

Playing bingo needs more than luck or skills and techniques, contrary to what most believe. Bingo, just like any game of chance, comes with rules and regulations that players should observe. Being a player comes with responsibilities and etiquette.
Winning the Game
The moment you figured out you won, you must immediately yell BINGO, and it should be loud enough for the floor walker to hear. The pot money shall be given to the winner once their winning card is confirmed. Well, in winning or once you know you just won, the most important thing is that you shout the winning word BEFORE the time elapses. If the game proceeds and the next number is mentioned and you failed to shout "Bingo", your winning card is disqualified. Therefore, this is the rule you must know.
There may be cases when there are two winners, and in this case the pot money shall be divided equally among the winners. Supposing there are two winning cards, the two winners will share half the prize money.
Bingo Game Rules
Bingo rules are basically the same no matter in which Online Bingo hall you play. But still it's good if you know these rules by heart. If it is your first try, then ask for handouts and inquire from pros regarding the game rules. Nonetheless, the ideal thing to do if you have questions is to ask the floor walker and not the person seated beside you. You should clarify things and doubts before the game starts because asking too many questions as the game proceeds could well distract you. This guideline also applies to those who are newcomers at casinos, those who play roulette for the first time.
Bingo halls demand an age limit of 18 years old. If you are below this age, you are prohibited to play. Some bingo houses ban alcohol inside, so players aren't supposed to take liquor nor drink it inside the venue. Smoking may also be restricted inside the venue, as there are designated smoking sections.
Take note that some Bingo houses don't allow food but some do, so it basically depends on the venue. Policies vary among different venues. For instance, some bingo halls allow reservation of cards, while others don't allow it. Some allow people to leave the venue in the middle of the game, others forbid it. But there are general policies observed in all bingo houses, such as disqualification of tampered bingo cards. There is no way you can get away with a tampered card because the walkers are adept at identifying authentic cards from tampered ones. You could be banned from a bingo establishment if proven liable of tampering a card. Hence, you should play honestly.
Interestingly, some venues offer special bingo games for kids although some halls don't allow players to have companions while playing. Suppose you bring kids with you, don't let them run around the venue and bother other gamers. They should behave well whilst you play and the game proceeds. Play quietly and don't recite the numbers you desperately want to come off because you'll be much of a disturbance if you do. Decorous playing is expectant of all players, even those who play roulette at casinos. Also, having a valid identification is important because you don't know you might win and need to present credentials.
