They need to be able to go where the action is. We should close the faculty of science altogether, and use the existing budget in the form of scholarships for Maltese students. It’s the way they do it in Portugal, Slovenia, and a host of other small players in the scientific fields, and now they can boast of chaps like Magueijo, or Seljak, who never did a jot of undergraduate study in their home country. It’s the way of the future.

Just having such a conference in Malta is already an achievement, and the fact that Kristian is leading the Oxford group is quite impressive and shall give opportunities to Maltese students to be exposed to this field of studies. Just for your information, a radio telescope like that has to be located in remote areas; in fact the site will not even be in Europe. Please let us criticise when needed but applaud hard work and peer-supported success.

THAT IS COMPLETE RUBBISH, WORSE THAN STATING THAT THE EARTH IS FLAT. Quite apart from the fact that it is the conference that will be hosted in Malta, not the project itself. I’m sure Zarb Adami never made such outrageous claims.
