It is indeed absurd to move a scientific institute involved in fundamental scientific research under the umbrella of MCCCPRonald Van der Linden (Brussels, 2023-11-21)

Research institutes are not commodities. Their primary function is to pursue knowledge, and they should have the freedom to do so.Michael Peskin (Sunnyvale, 2023-11-21)

Moving NOA under the Ministry of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection goes against its main goal: basic and applied research. If accomplished, the future of NOA will become uncertain.Manuel Collados (La Laguna, 2023-11-21)

The decision to move NOA from the General Secretariat of Research & Innovation to the Ministry of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection overlooks the congruence of NOA's mission with MCCCP's objectives, and the potential negative impact on research activities.The NOA plays a crucial role in advancing scientific knowledge, particularly in the fields of Astronomy, Astrophysics, and related disciplines. Preserving it as a vital research center under the appropriate supervision is not only crucial for its own growth but also for the broader scientific community in Greece. I strongly encourage you to reassess this decision in light of its potential impact on academic freedom, the congruence of institutional missions, and the overall advancement of research in the country.

I am signing this request because I consider that my astronomer colleagues benefit more of NOA as it is now and because NOA is an important tool in their research and it is important to protect it.Margarita Rosado (México, CDMX, 2023-11-21)

I stand by every academic and researcher who asks for academic freedom to do their job, which is so needed for Greece and for the rest of the world. Research institutes - especially public ones - should be respected as independent entities and decide which fields of research they are developing and why. By no means should any academic environment should be part of a broader political scene maneuvering or controlled by governments for their core research decisions.Iliana Pappi (s-Hertogenbosch, 2023-11-21)

I think, also for my experience in my country, that it is best that all public research institutions share a common legislative framework, and are under vigilance of the research ministryLucio Chiappetti (Milan, 2023-11-21)

Το Εθνικο Αστεροσκοπειο πρεπει να παραμεινει ανεξαρτητο απο την Πολιτικη Προστασια προκειμενου να μπορει να πληροφορει αντικειμενικα τους πολιτες.ΒΑΣΙΛΗΣ ΧΡΥΣΟΣ (ΑΘΗΝΑ, 2023-11-22)

Το ΕΑΑ πρέπει να παραμείνει ως ερευνητικό κέντρο της Γενικής Γραμματείας Έρευνας και Καινοτομίας (όπου ανήκουν τα Ερευνητικά Κέντρα της χώρας), κι όχι να αλλοιωθεί η ερευνητική φυσιογνωμία του από την υποβάθμισή του σε μια υπηρεσία του ΥΚΚΠΠ.Αθανάσιος Νταραντούμης (ΚΗΦΙΣΙΑ, 2023-11-22)

Η μετακίνηση του Αστεροσκοπείου απο την ΓΕΓΕΚ το υποβαθμίζει σε απλό διεκπεραιωτή δεδομένων και αναγκαστικά υποστηρικτή της όποιας κυβερνητικής πολιτικής στα θέματα κιματιής αλλαγής και περιβάλλοντος. Θεωρώ ότι η εξέλιξη αυτή, στερεί από την θεματική της κλιματικής κρίσης την αναγκαία έρευνα αλλά και το ελεύθερο λόγο.Σπύρος Βουτσινάς (Αθήνα, 2023-11-22)

The National Observatory of Athens is a vital research center of Greece that contributes significantly to scientific advancement and as such belongs to the General Secretariat of Research & Innovation, not to this incompetent body that calls itself Ministry of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection.Patricia van der Wal (Athens, 2023-11-22)
