Urban Astronomer to speak at ASSA Symposium 2012

I’ve mentioned the ASSA symposium already, but I have one new detail that might be of interest to readers: I will be speaking on the topic of Astronomy Online in the 3pm Outreach & Education slot on Saturday, 13 October. If you’re interested in hearing what I or any of the other speakers have to say, visit the symposium website and book your seat before the end of the month. Unlike most of the talks I announce here, there is a cost of R300, which gains you access to the entire weekend’s worth of talks and functions, although students can pay the heavily discounted rate of R100. It happens at the South African Astronomical Observatory in Cape Town from 12 to 14 October.
