From 7 to 12 November 2023
Science Week returns for another year at the Science Museum of Castilla-La Mancha with a calendar full of activities for all audiences. As always, in collaboration with AstroCuenca, which has once again prepared an interesting game Lecture seriesIncluding telescope and solar monitoring workshop.
This year the Science Museum of Castilla-La Mancha offers us 5 conferences for the dissemination of science, one projection in the planetarium entitled “Grandmother Earth”, and 2 workshops in astronomy and solar observation.
Since 2011, AstroCuenca has been developing astronomy conferences under the general theme of “Diversity of Astronomy”, covering a wide range of publishing about astronomy and related sciences. These conferences, which were structured as conferences and discussions, included the participation of prominent researchers and academics at the national level.
The conference series covers different areas of astronomy, from the Introduction to Gas Giants by José María Sánchez Martínez to the Introduction to Relativity. Geometric Theory by Isidoro González Navarro or “From Tatooine to Crait: Science in the Exoplanets of the Star Wars Universe” by Antonio Pérez Verde and others. Conferences will be held in person in the museum’s conference room.
Since 2020, these courses have been honored for Joaquin Solerwho was an active member of AstroCuenca and always present in our memories.
