Outreach activities in
the media
In the
last 20 years I have been promoting an intense outreach activity in the press.
We generally produce press reports; journalists on different astronomical
topics frequently request us. As a summary of these activities I participated
in more than 50 interviews or press articles, more than 100 interviews on radio
and more than 50 on TV; consequently, I become one of the main references for
the media on astronomical issues.
