Let's Know Each Other!

We all know ten days in August won't be sufficient to know each other, share common passion, experience and knowledge. This is the reason EuRo Eclipse 99 set up some facilities for our guests in order to contact BEFORE the eclipse, share their common interests and inquiry the organisers with new projects. In this sense, we provide the following on-line facilities:

Contact your colleagues!
EuRo Eclipse 99 e-mail subscription program
EuRo Eclipse 99 meeting chat program
Six chat meetings were held since Feb 99


Total Solar Eclipse with Meteors

An international astronomical meeting will be held on 7-8 August in Targoviste. The meeting will include: group presentations, change of experience, posters, lectures on Safe Solar Observing by Dr. Ralph Chou, exposition of photos, publications and instruments (opened between 7-14 August), a possible youth astronomical contest. The astronomical companies, magazines and individuals are invited to attend the meeting or send advertising.


Good news about tourist visas!
