Astronomy Olympiad 2018

The International Olympiad in Astronomy and Astrophysics was held in Beijing at the start of November 2018. This year, 45 teams from 39 different countries met to demonstrate their skills in terms of theoretical knowledge, data analysis, and observation work.

Among the five students who represented Slovenia at this competition was Ema Mlinar from our school. Not only did the team do well overall, but Ema was able to show expertise on a personal level and ended up winning a bronze medal.

Congratulations to all the students and mentors involved in this project, both from Gimnazija Vič and the other schools and colleges around Slovenia.
