Imagination is more important than knowledge

It is for me important to communicate astronomy in two ways. First, let the citizens know that there is a chance to look up and wonder. Most people are curious enough to want to do this! Second imagination is more important than knowledge. That is why you have to keep it simple and let people feel and see what it is to see the moon and planets. Those "aaahhhhs" and "ooohhhs" will make it all worthwhile.
