Dear colleague
First, please forgive us if you receive this mail several times.
The planning of the Communicating Astronomy with the Public 2007 (CAP =
2007) conference in Athens, Greece, 8 - 11 October 2007 is going really =
well. The main web site is: http://www.communicatingastronomy.org
We have a few things to pass on to you.
*Abstracts
*Over the past weeks we have received a number of very interesting =
abstracts. We however believe that we may have had a glitch with the =
abstract submission procedure, so if you have submitted an abstract =
please double-check if your title appears in the list below (unless it =
was submitted during the last hours). If your abstract is missing please =
mail it to the CAP2007 Conference LOC <cap2007 at academyofathens.gr>.
We will post the programme online over the next weeks.
*** Please note that the list of abstracts below only represents what we =
have received, and is not the final selection for the programme ***
*Accommodation *
The accommodation deadline is 15. July, but we encourage you to send the =
form as early as possible. The hotels are filling rapidly.
*Social events*
There is now a bit more information about the social events online at =
http://www.communicatingastronomy.org/cap2007/social.html
It looks like we will have some both productive and nice days in Greece!...
*Payment of registrations*
If you have not yet paid, please pay with credit card via the three =
buttons at bottom of:
http://www.communicatingastronomy.org/cap2007/registration.html
If you have no way to pay via credit card in advance, you may pay in =
cash on site in Athens directly to the LOC.
*List of participants*
If you have registered, please double-check if you are on the list of =
participants:
http://www.communicatingastronomy.org/cap2007/participants.html
If not, please send the registration form soon (we will have to cap the =
number of registering participants at 180):
http://www.communicatingastronomy.org/cap2007/registration.html
*Image exhibition*
We are hoping to be able to show 100 or more large stunning images of =
astronomical objects in one, or hopefully more, public spaces in Athens. =
We are open to more participants in this initiative. Read more at:
http://www.communicatingastronomy.org/cap2007/image_exh.html
Please mail lars at eso.org if you have images to provide and have not yet =
"signed up" for this exhibition initiative.
*Developing nations grants*
We have received several grant applications from developing nations and =
are happy to announce that we will be able to award free transportation, =
accommodation and registration to roughly seven participants.
Best regards, on behalf of the SOC and LOC,
Ian Robson
