StarPeace
StarPeace project is a global project aimed at connecting people living on two sides of the land or sea borders of different countries by conducting joint star parties to show that the sky, being the same everywhere, could act as a bridge to join the people of the world regardless of the race, culture or nation they belong to. Project StarPeace is made possible by volunteer participation of active amateur astronomical groups around the globe.
StarPeace project is organized by the Sky Peace non-profit non-governmental organization and Astronomical Society of Iran which is the organizational node of IYA2009 in Iran.
Organizing committee of the Project StarPeace eagerly asks all the active astronomy groups from all around the world to join this project and hold star parties around their countries' borderlines in an effort to bring friendship and peace to the people of the world.
