Today’s guest is Pranvera Hyseni. She is the founder and director of the Astronomy Outreach of Kosovo. Many space journalists from her home country of Kosovo have called her the next Carl Sagan. In 2017 Ms. Pranvera traveled to the United States and presented the keynote speech at the 2017 Texas Star Party. She also lectured at SpaceFest 2017 and VIP visits to Kennedy Space Center, Johnson Space Center and other NASA facilities. She also was able to visit educational institutions such as the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and the LADD Observatory. Astronomy Outreach of Kosovo is a chapter member of the Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project.
Update (2023) My friend Pranvera is now living in the United States studying to earn her PhD in Earth & Planetary Sciences! And her life-long dream building a astronomical observatory and planetarium in her beloved Kosovo is becoming a reality.
Way to go Pran! We can’t wait to visit Kosovo…
