expo: Wunderkammer of TRUTH
The Ghent University Museum is running the new exhibition "Wunderkammer of TRUTH". In this expo, you will find out all about what we are all looking for. THE truth. But what are we really looking for? Does absolute certainty exist? What is the role of science and art in this search? And also: does a museum actually always tell the truth? More info and reservations via the link below.

-It has already been five years since the International Astronomical Union voted to formally change the name of "Hubble's law" to the "Hubble-Lemaître law" in order to acknowledge the scientific contributions of [[Lemaître, Georges Henri Joseph Édouard (1894-1966)|Georges Lemaître]] to the scientific theory of the expansion of the universe. To celebrate this recognition of the father of the big-bang model and modern cosmology, you can find everything on bestor about astronomy by following the link below.
+After the dead of [[Mons, Jean-Baptiste van (1765-1842)|Jean-Baptiste Van Mons]], his famous horticultural nursery was in peril.
