| Description: | On November 22, we concluded ASTRON's 75th anniversary with two special events: the Past, Present, Future Conference and the Gallery of Honour. During the Past, Present, Future Conference, inspiring presentations were given on topics such as the origins of the WSRT and LOFAR, science with Apertif, and ASTRON’s future. It was an engaging day where researchers, enthusiasts, and contributors to ASTRON's 75-year journey came together. Around 4:00 PM, we transitioned to the second event: the festive opening of the Gallery of Honour, featuring a stunning photo exhibition about 75 years of ASTRON. These photo panels will soon be displayed prominently in our building. Additionally, we were treated to an impressive performance by the Keuning Jeugd Orkest, which played a piece specially composed for ASTRON. Speeches by dignitaries such as the Mayor of Westerveld, Tjerk Opmeer, and Willemien Meeuwissen highlighted the importance of this extraordinary institution. We look back with pride on an unforgettable day that beautifully marked the conclusion of our anniversary year! |
