Event Description:  Sibiu County has a special relationship with the space research having been home to Conrad Haas, the inventor of the multi-stage rocket, and to Herman Oberth, father of astronautics, who taught physics and mathematics in Medias. 2007 is not only the fiftieth anniversary of the start of the space era, but also as the year Sibiu acted as the European Capital of Culture. It is, therefore, not surprising that Sibiu would bring its contribution to the 2007 edition of the World Space Week.
