"Het logboek", commissioned by ASTRON, is a compelling adventure set in the moorlands of Dwingeloo with the glorious telescope in the background. Luna and her friends are confronted with mysterious events when camping in the forest around Lhee. Fences disappear, game computer GPUs get stolen, remarkable characters cross the forest... Will they be able to unravel the secret? The adventure novel "Het logboek" is also a journey through Dutch astronomy, featuring prof. Jan Oort and prof. Lex Muller, the Wurzburg telescope were it all began, and related historical events in 70 years of radio astronomy in the Netherlands. At the presentation of the book, schools from villages with a connection to ASTRON will be present as well. Children from Diever, Beilen and Borger-Odoorn will get a first copy of the book.
