[AstroNet] Posters

Mon Jul 30 13:08:12 SAST 2007

We've got the SKA posters on display here - three very nice long ones, 
covering (1) Solar System
(latest version, with dwarf planets), (2) Your Place in the Universe, 
and (3) Electromagnetic Spectrum.
They're on view at www.ska.ac.za. 

We've also had the one that SAAO produced years ago on SA starlore. 

People would like to buy these, but at the moment they're only available 
as give-aways to schools
(not sure if the SAAO one is still available).  They are all very nice, 
useful for the info on them,
and great because they are made-in-SA.

If people are producing resources like these, it would be really great 
if they could work out a
realistic cost price for them, negotiate with the funders that it's ok 
to re-sell them, and make
them available to retail outlets like ourselves.   This would also avoid 
the problem we have of
having to tell people that the posters are not available, which is no 
fun for the staff.

Thanks
