The article about the GAIA mission signed by the researchers from the Institut d'Estudis Espacials de Catalunya (IEEC) at the Institut de Ciències del Cosmos (ICC-UB) Mercè Romero, Lola Balaguer and Jordi Portell is on the cover of the Spanish magazine Astronomía.
First published in 1985, it was the first Spanish magazine to go on sale at newsstands and which was entirely dedicated to the dissemination of astronomy, astrophysics and space sciences. In November 2016, the magazine received the Special Jury Prize of the 29th edition of the Prisma Awards, the most prestigious and veteran guard of those awarded in the dissemination field in Spain. The jury's minutes highlighted "the trajectory of this reference publication as well as its adaptation to new communicative contexts, knowing how to maintain the interest of the public during the last three decades".
It is an honour that the work done by IEEC/ICCUB members appears on the cover of this prestigious magazine. Congratulations!
