Today, our team langitselatan went to a St. Yusuf kinder garden to give an introduction on solar system to the students there. After a brief presentation about solar system we also display a script from Celestia to explore the solar system.

.. welll…. it’s been several weeks after the eclipse. And I already share the picture in my facebook and flickr. But I will also share the pictures here.

A kinder garden invited us to give a brief talk … and discussion about solar system and a sun observation. The session is really great. All children get excited to see the comparison between object from Sun to Mercury.

Happy New Year 2010

last weekend we had a chance to hold a moon observation session in moon cake festival at Cihampelas Walk mall in Bandung. This is a Chinese cultural event.

During Eid Mubarak .. we have a week off from the government. And yaii.. I enjoy my vacation.  Here in Indonesia we have a tradition called “mudik”. It was a term for people that going back to their hometown during Eid Mubarak. But.. lately in these years, although most people here going back to their hometown, others are going to some other place for vacation. One of the tourist destination is Bandung. 

This is only a short note about our activities now.  We are preparing several events for October including Galilean Night. I had talk with a colleague in Philliphine about making a connection during October event for both country. But again and again we both still thinking about the weather….

Well during my vacation… I made a very simple poster paper template for those who work with iWork Pages. You can paste your scientific information in it and be done. You can also change the design to suit your poster display.

Wow.. it’s been two month I don’t write in this blog. I’ve been ill for a month.. and many plan were change. But I’m glad there is nothing serious and I can go back to work and have so many wonderful activities with the people here.

For so many people, science is something hard to understand. Only genius who could understands math, physics and all science subject including astronomy. And those genius proof themselves as the best when they win a gold medal in science olympiads. We often heard.. young people in Indonesia are talented and the educaton here as good as in other country since many of them win a medal in olympiads.
