The 'Great' Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn - A Live Event planned!

Youla Pandazi spoke to Marilena Griva, the Cultural Advisor of the Greek Consulate of Johannesburg, about the Live Event planned to observe the Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn.

This year, the “Christmas Star” will “shine” on the 21st of December and will be visible in Greece at 17.30 (GMT+2), just before sunset and at 19:15 (GMT+2) in South Africa, just after sunset. Almost every 400 years the two giant planets align considerably with our planet, resulting in a very close encounter of the two, as observed from our planet. This is what will happen on the 21st of December 2020.

Ellinogermaniki Agogi, has partnered with the Observatory of Boyden in South Africa and Skinakas Observatory in Crete, to organise a live broadcast of the observation of the phenomenon, from both the North and the South Hemispheres. Alongside the observation, which will take place weather permitting, presentations have been planned, regarding our solar system and offering educational opportunities for teachers and students.

The link to the Live event is: www.youtube.com/user/ellinogermaniki/

This collaboration is an initiative between Greece and South Africa spearheaded by the Consul General, Mr. Ioannis Chatzantonakis, with the intention that Hellenes throughout the world experience this phenomenon and likewise celebrate the work of Mr. Paraskevopoulos .

We would also like to thank the efforts and initiative of the Hellenic Community of Bloemfontein.
