Münsterschwarzach, Germany was the site of the fourth StAnD transnational project meeting, 13-14 November 2025, hosted by FTP-Europlanet at the Egbert Gymnasium. Representatives from all StAnD partners were warmly welcomed by the head of the Gymnasium, Markus Binzenhöfer, OSTD, who took the time to give them a tour of the school before starting their meeting.
The meeting gave everyone the opportunity to provide an update on each part of the project and to check where more progress is needed. On the afternoon of 13 November participants were given a tour of the Abbey grounds, and visited the school’s two observatories and inspected the StAnD meteor detection camera. In the evening, there was a brief observation before fog and clouds obscured the sky.
After the meeting had concluded, Dario Barghini from INAF ran a training course on implementing the StAnD camera toolkit for local teachers. Watch this space for details on how to use the data from this toolkit, even if your school doesn’t have the camera!
