We hope that this newspaper will prolong the magnificent tradition of Prague’s "Conversations with (Galileo’s) Sidereal messenger"
First, original work "Dissertatio cum Nuncio sidereo" was written by Johannes Kepler and issued in 1610:
"Dissertatio" was Kepler's reply to Galileo's illustrious book "Sidereus Nuncius", issued in Venice also in 1610.
Then, "Dissertatio cum Nuncio sidereo, Series secunda" was the newspaper of XIIIth IAU GA held also in Prague in 1967. The electronic version of this already historical newspaper will be gradually displayed at our webpage before the start of the XXVIth General Assembly of the IAU in August.
