Astronomy: Exploring Time and Space

In 2021 I supervised Justas Plaušinaitis for his bachelor's thesis.

I am a member of the OPTICON Telescope Observation Time Allocation Committee since 2018.

I gave lectures on the topics of astronomy during the events "Researchers' Nights" at Molėtai Astronomical Observatory (7 lectures in total); I gave several lectures in various Lithuanian schools, participating in the European Space Agency project to stimulate students' interest in natural science studies (16 lectures in total); I participated in the activities of Vilnius University Children's University and gave lectures to children in Luokė and Upyna schools; Lectures were given at the events „Kontraforsai“, „Erdvėlaivis Žemė“, „Gyvybės mokslų diena“, in the lecture series „Astronomijos paskaitos“ of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences; A publication has been prepared for the annual periodical „Lietuvos dangus 2021“; Interviews were given to the science popularization programs „Smalsumo genas“ and „Mokslo sriuba“; I am a member of the editorial board of Lietuvos Dangus since 2016.
