Excerpt: 

The Rome Astronomical Observatory is one of the 12 Astronomical Observatories in Italy. Their istitutional task is to undertake research in astronomy for the advancement of scientific knowledge and to develop and maintain world class instrumentation and facilities. The Rome Observatory, in addition to this, also houses the Astronomical Museum (open to the public on Wed. and Sat, 9-13 a.m.), where we keep the inheritance of the Italian astronomical tradition of the past centuries. The current research activity of the Rome Observatory, in the two sites of Rome-Monte Mario and Monte Porzio (just outside the city; where this server is located) , spans several subjects, from Solar Astronomy to Globular Clusters, from stellar evolution to Galactic structure, from cosmic microwave background to early universe cosmology and large scale structure. Several key technical projects are also underway.

Polynesian Voyaging Society
Excerpt: 

The Polynesian Voyaging Society (PVS) was founded in 1973 to research how Polynesian seafarers discovered and settled nearly every inhabitable island in the Pacific Ocean before European explorers arrived in the 16th century. Some scholars have argued that the Polynesian drifted to these islands by accident; PVS set out to show that a voyaging canoe of Polynesian design could be navigated without instruments over the long, open ocean migration routes of Polynesia.
