In Brera, celestial maps and terrestrial maps – Media INAF

The list of papers and maps – stellar, terrestrial, other – kept at the Brera Astronomical Observatory is now available online: a rich, wonderful collection formed since the early years of the Specola, in the mid-18th century. Some students also worked on the project, curated by Cristina Zangelmi and Agnese Mandrino during the school-work alternation activities – Congratulations to Cristina Zangelmi and Agnese Mandrino (and to the students involved in the PCTO activities) for the great work done that gives great prestige to our Observatory – Read the full story on Media INAF (in italian)
