Researchers Francisco Squeo (ULS-CEAZA), Ricardo Oyarzún (ULS-CEAZA) and Antonio Maldonado (CEAZA) will present at the activity.

If the Coquimbo Region is today an ideal sanctuary for astronomical research, a true open-air laboratory, it owes it to the uniqueness of its natural context, the result of a delicate balance that has evolved over time and is our duty to respect and care.

On the occasion of heritage days, we invite you to discover our natural heritage in this new event with the “AstroINnova” series of talks, at the Gabriela Mistral Regional Library starting at 18.30:24 p.m. this Friday, May XNUMX.

In the activity, academics and researchers from the University of La Serena and the Center for Advanced Studies in Arid Zones (CEAZA), Francisco Squeo and Ricardo Oyarzún, will present “The conservation of our regional natural heritage” and “Singularities of the Region of Coquimbo: a vision from the physical world” respectively, and the CEAZA researcher, Antonio Maldonado, with “The Coquimbo region: fossil record and its geo-heritage potential.”

The talk is free of charge and for more information visit http://astroserena.weebly.com.

The “AstroInnova” cycle is organized by the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of La Serena and Gemini Observatory, with the support of the Gabriela Mistral Regional Library.
