Scientific paper

The Navegar Foundation was created to manage Centro Multimeios de Espinho- Portugal. From the beginning, one of the foundation's main areas was, by default, astronomy education: its main equipment was a planetarium. Regular planetarium shows attracted a large number of schools (we now have an average of 20,000 students per year in a city of 30,000 inhabitants, so our public is now national and not regional). With the introduction of new ideas and equipment new activities came to life: the astronomy public library; observatory; student and teacher training; content development; astronomy laboratories; production of planetarium shows; public talks, among others.
