* Invitation to the special seminars "Rosetta: Light on our Origins"*

After a ten-year interplanetary journey, the ESA Rosetta spacecraft has 
performed the most detailed observations of one of the oldest building 
blocks of our Solar System, the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The 
main results of these unique observations will be presented to the 
scientific community of the Trieste area in the form of three special 
seminars.

Two seminars will be delivered on October 12, 14:30, at the Kastler 
Lecture Hall of the ICTP Adriatico Guesthouse (Via Grignano 9, Trieste). 
The third seminar is scheduled on October 13, 11:30, at INAF - Trieste 
Astronomical Observatory (Via Bazzoni 2, Trieste).

The seminars are organized by INAF-Trieste Astronomical Observatory in 
collaboration with the International Centre for Theoretical Physics, the 
Italian Astrobiology Society, and the Science Centre Immaginario 
Scientifico.

A conference on the Rosetta mission oriented to the general public will 
be held on October 12, 18:00, at Museo Revoltella (Via Diaz 27, 
Trieste). The public conference is organized in collaboration with the 
City of Trieste and will be held in Italian.

Below you can find a program of all these events.
