Astronomy is the only science that has its muse Urania in Greek mythology, and it is certainly no coincidence. The view of the sky has long inspired poets, painters and composers. Are you interested in who and how astronomy has appealed to? Our journey together will take us through the Rudolphine era, stopping at the Cosmic Songs, the Czech poet Bohumila Grögerová or the sculptors who depicted famous astronomers. As part of the Week of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, RNDr. Jiří Grygar, CSc from the Department of Astroparticle Physics of the Institute of Physics of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic gave a lecture on November 4, 2022.
