Hands-on-Universe, Europe (EU-HOU) aims at re-awakening the interest forscience in the young generations through astronomy and new technologies. Itrelies on real observations acquired through a worldwide internet-basednetwork of automatic telescopes or with didactical tools (webcam,radiotelescope). Pupils manipulate images in the classroom environment, using specific software within pedagogical resources constructed in closecollaboration between researchers and teachers. EU-HOU is freely available onthe web, and trains european teachers.
