The ESO web site is now available in twelve languages

18 septembre 2009

As of today, 18 September 2009, ESO is pleased to announce that important parts of its extensive website have been translated into eleven European languages, covering all ESO member states as well as some additional countries. Many more readers will now be able to learn all about ESO's impressive telescopes and projects in their own languages. These include the most advanced observing facility in the world, the Very Large Telescope, as well as the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array and the planned European Extremely Large Telescope. ESO press releases will also now be available in these languages, in addition to descriptions of ESO-related events taking place in the ESO member states.

This new service is courtesy of the ESO Science Outreach Network (ESON), a network of individuals in several countries — including all the ESO member states — who serve as local contacts for the media and the general public in connection with ESO developments, press releases, exhibitions and more. The ESON members also serve as useful contacts between the media and scientists in their respective regions, and as such are valuable ambassadors in the member states.

The new, dedicated websites are available for readers from Austria, Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland, as well as for Chile. In addition, there are also ESON contacts in Ireland, the United Kingdom and the USA.
