European Week of Astronomy and Space Science
EWASS 2013

Dear Colleagues,

It gives us a great pleasure to invite you to Finland to attend the European Week of Astronomy and Space Science, which is going to be held on 8 - 13 July 2013 in Logomo Centre in Turku, Finland. EWASS is the annual meeting of the EAS. On Saturday, 13 July, is also the Plenary discussion on the ASTRONET Mid-Term Review that is closely connected to the EWASS meeting.

Turku is the oldest university town and the former capital of Finland. Turku is also well-known for its location in the beautiful archipelago. The time of the meeting, early July, is usually a pleasant  season in Southwest Finland with plenty of sunshine and about 20 hours of daylight. Turku, with its seven hills and the river Aurajoki, has a lively cultural life with several museums and art galleries, and it was elected one of the cultural capital cities of Europe for the year 2011.

We look forward to seeing you in Turku in July 2013!
