| Abstract: |
I describe the last years of the 370-year long life of the
Sterrekundig Instituut Utrecht, which was the second-oldest
university observatory in the world and was closed in early 2012
after the Faculty of Science and the Board of Utrecht University
decided, without providing qualitative or quantitative arguments, to
remove astrophysics from its research and education portfolio. |
