Astronomy Outreach (and Observing) in Cuba: Trip Five

摘要

For my wife and me, no two trips to Cuba have been alike, and the November 2015 trip was different again. The history of our previous Cuba trips with outreach components has been completely documented in the Journal (Chapman 2010, Chapman 2011, Chapman 2012, Chapman 2014). In 2015, we headed to a new region for us: Santiago de Cuba province, far to the southeast, a few tens of kilometres west of the infamous Guantanamo Bay [US] Naval Base. The purpose of this trip was almost entirely vacation, but I did a little observing, a little astrophotography, and a little outreach, enough to warrant a report.
