Difusión y Transferencia


I'm author a book "astronomía ilustrada Sol Tierra Luna Eclipses" available electronically for free in spanish and english, and co-author of the book "Con las manos en la ciencia"
I present the podcast La raíz de la ciencia, available in Cooperativa, spotify, apple podcast and other platforms
I'm columnist of astronomy at Radio Infinita national radio station.
I have given numerous talks at different locations, such as Planetarium, museums, and SOCHIAS talks for the public to name a few. I have
participated in several astronomy and science outreach events, including 1000 científicos, 1000 aulas, "Día de la astronomía" in Valparaíso in 2016 and 2017, "Día del patrimonio" in observatory Manuel Foster, etc. I was an active member of Millennium instiute for Astrophysics outreach team, where I have been involved in development of the "masticaastros" video game, and the nucelo milenio de formación planetaria outreach tema. I also participated in series of short astronomy animates with over 50.000 views each. I have also been participated in interviews in radio, TV and newspaper.
