But the mysteries of the cosmos are not exclusive to astronomers and physicists, since different organizations have started to open its doors to the public with the purpose of allowing them to discover more about our universe.
In the north of Chile, in Atacama and Antofagasta region, different observatories have been installed, making the most of the amazing skies of the Atacama Desert.
