Supporting ground based photometry has also been obtained at ESO.

(c) The development of an Inter African Astronomical Observatory and Science Park on the Gamsberg in Namibia

26. In the early 1990s, Honduras decided to establish the first astronomical observatory in Central America.

Research groups are the Lund Observatory, University of Lund Stockholm Observatory, Stockholm University Uppsala Astronomical Observatory, University of Uppsala Onsala Space Observatory, Chalmers and University of Technology, Gothenburg

This workshop will address the feasibility of establishing a World Space Observatory and a worldwide network of small astronomical telescopes.

The sides have stepped up their joint efforts to establish the Suffa international radio astronomical observatory.

(d) Concept of the World Space Observatory

TUBITAK established the Institute of Optical Observatory in the western Taurus Mountains.

As part of the inauguration activity of the astronomical observatory at the Observatorio Astronómico de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras, the United Nations, in cooperation with ESA, organized this Workshop focusing on small astronomical telescopes and satellites in education and research.

The training of engineers and technicians in French observatories such as OHP and OMP has also been proposed.

Establishment of the Inter African Astronomical Observatory and Science Park in Namibia recommended (see document A AC.105 560 Add.1) Pending

Facilities, equipment, and local transportation were provided by the Observatorio Astronómico de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras.

In 1994, the results of research by SAAO staff and other astronomers using the facilities of SAAO were published in 146 papers in astronomical journals and in conference proceedings.

Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNISPACE III) and the World Space Observatory

Since 1994, an astronomical observatory has been functioning at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras quot An astronomical observatory for Central America a realistic way of strengthening basic space science in developing countries quot , American Institute of Physics Conference Proceedings, vol. 320, 1994, pp. 13 22. (the National Autonomous University of Honduras) at Tegucigalpa.

In a world where concentration of first scale astronomical facilities is an unstoppable trend, a technologically attractive solution could be supplied by a World Space Observatory.
