The 27th IMC got a well filled lecture program and the presentations were of exceptional quality and the organizational work done very professionally for every detail. The stay in the winter resort Šachticka, a very comfortable hotel assured a high quality IMC host. The excursion to a mining museum which included a visit underground, and an excellent program in the planetarium will remain in the memory of the participants.
