The StarPeace Project was a global special project first organised in conjunction with the International Year of Astronomy in 2009.〔(List of IYA Special Projects )〕 StarPeace project participants held public star parties near a border of their country with a neighboring country. The intention was to show that there are no borders in the real Earth, borders are man-made and science has no borders.〔(''StarPeace Project'' )〕〔(''Iran, the Land of Civilization and Friendship'' )〕 ==Vision== In accordance with the goals of the International Year of Astronomy 2009, the Starpeace project has these aims: *To encourage astronomy groups in one country to cooperate with those in neighboring countries, creating a network of active astronomy groups in that region. *To give particular encouragement to the growth and survival of astronomy groups in developing countries. *To use these star parties as a means of increasing scientific awareness and to improve the knowledge of astronomy through talks and photographs. *To make a contribution towards regional peace and harmony. *To provide an opportunity for people to use astronomical equipment that they might not otherwise have encountered or experienced at first hand. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「StarPeace Project」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
