We are proud to announce that PlanIt – the Italian Association of Planetaria – has joined the FDDB Partnership: welcome aboard! Planit was officially founded in 2009, but the meetings of the former unofficial Italian association have been held since 1986. PlanIt is a member of the IPS Executive Council.

 

Among the association’s aims are:

• to promote activities related to the study, research dissemination, teaching and communication of scientific culture, in particular in the fields of astronomy, astrophysics and relates disciplines;
• to promote the coordination of a national policy of planetaria;
• to improve information about existing Italian planetaria;
• to cooperate with similar organizations at an international level.
