						The International Year of Astronomy 2009, IYA2009 in short, is a global celebration of astronomy and its contributions to society and culture and marks the 400th anniversary of the first use of an astronomical telescope by Galileo Galilei. The aim of the Year is to stimulate worldwide interest, especially among young people, in astronomy and science under the central theme “The Universe, Yours to Discover.” IYA2009 events and activities will promote a greater appreciation of the inspirational aspects of astronomy that embody an invaluable shared resource for all nations.

						<img src="img/pt_flag.gif" alt="" style="margin-right: 5px;" /><i>Carl Sagan é recordado como um dos maiores astrónomos de sempre, não só pelas suas contribuições exemplares para as ciências planetárias e astrobiologia, mas especialmente por ter sido um extraordinário divulgador e comunicador de ciência. Visionário no estudo do sistema solar, Carl Sagan foi também inovador na forma de transmitir a ciência ao grande público. A sua elegante, clara e inteligente forma de escrita ganhou, graças ao livro Cosmos, imensos adeptos e chegou a públicos que até então estavam afastados da ciência. [...] Cosmos é um livro para ler, reler e será sempre uma inspiração e motivação para descobrir o Universo que nos rodeia.</i> Pedro Russo, Coordenador global do Ano Internacional da Astronomia 2009.

						<i>"As coordinator of the International Year of Astronomy 2009, I need to communicate, often through writing, with thousands of people from more than 130 nations. Obviously this is quite a challenge in terms of getting messages across the different cultural and languages constrains! Writing Around the World is the perfect field guide for this task and it has helped me to improve the communication flow within the IYA2009 network. McCool's book presents a solid, suggestive and significant contribution to what is now one of the most difficult arenas in science communication: writing across cultures."</i> &mdash; Pedro Russo is the International Astronomical Union Coordinator for International Year of Astronomy 2009. He is also editor-in-chief of the Communicating Astronomy with the Public Journal.
