Meeting of students of astronomy and astrophysics from Czech, Slovak, and Polish universities

Czech astronomical society & Slovak astronomical society

The main topic of the conference will be the presentation of scientific research activities of young astronomers in various areas of space research. In particular, university students of all levels are invited to the conference to present the results of their research achieved not only during the preparation of their theses. In addition to presentations, participants can also discuss the possibilities of mutual cooperation in the field of astronomical research in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Poland.

The meeting of students of astronomy and astrophysics studying at Czech, Slovak, and Polish universities will take place the whole day of April 19th, 2024 in Hvězdárna a planetárium Hradec Králové. The meeting will be a part of the general assembly of the Czech Astronomical Society.

Travel and accomodation informations

Venue

The venue of the whole meeting is the campus of Observatory and planetarium in Hradec Králové. The place is located in the southern part of the town and is easily reachable by cars. Parking is secured in the area of the institution and on the nearby streets. There is no stop of the public transport in an immediate vicinity of the building, however, at least three stops are located within a walking distance. From Hradec Králové downtown, you can take line 16 (stop Zámeček), lines 1 and 2 (stop Nový Hradec Králové), line 1 even continues to the stop Kluky planetárium. For the directions see the attached map. All these lines originate at the public-transport terminal (Terminál HD) next to the train station and bus terminal.

Reaching the accommodation

In the case you are staying in the hostel Academic, please note that there is a road construction place in the immediate vicinity, which induced temporary changes in the public-transport system. From the public-transport terminal (Terminál HD), which is next to both the train station and bus terminal, you can take lines going to stops Heyrovského and Zimní stadion. The stops are slightly relocated with respect to their original position and do not be surprised that the public-transport lines take a detour. For orientation, see the map below. On the map, the hostel is located just below the text "Zrušené zastávky Heyrovského".
