4x12: A touch of the Universe

The astrophysicist of the Astronomical Observatory of the University of Valencia Amelia Ortiz directs the project ‘A Touch of the Universe’ which, in its second phase, has created unique 3D models of supermassive black holes, the Milky Way or the cosmic spider web. This project is intended for people with vision problems and consists of the creation of kits with astronomical activities, called astrokits. These astrokits were distributed to developing countries in America, Africa and Asia.
