Citadels are associated with cannons. And for the ‘Science in the Citadel’ festival, we did set up cannons of a certain kind atop the Gozo Citadel: telescopes to show the general public some of the wonders of the night sky.

I would like to thank three of our students, Josef Borg, Karl Fiteni and Andrew Finch, who were as keen as ever to give a helping hand with this event, which was a great success. Some photos from the event follow.
