AstroAccesible

Simons Observatory researchers from the UK took part in the Royal Society Summer Exhibition 2026, which attracted more than 12,000 visitors throughout the week. In our stand, we shared how we use the most ancient light (the Cosmic Microwave Background) to reveal the Universe’s secrets, including exciting props such as sonifications, 3D-printed globes and even an arcade game!!

Astronomía Accesible is an outreach project whose aim is to provide outreach resources in astronomy to the visually impaired community. I have participated in the creation of some of these materials. You can read them here (in Spanish!):
