Mr. Yohanan Yokamo, Director of IRAAD, also forwarded his gratitude to the guest speaker for choosing HU to delivere such an inspiring public lecture. He added that it’s inspiring to see the former Hawassa University staff who is now working in a prominent international Space organization, NASA, and come back to share his scientific experiences at his old home.

In his lectures, Dr. Tilaye explained the benefits of space explorations and the technology shared from NASA to the world. He underlined in his lecture that human space exploration is not an option and man has always aspired to explore the unexplored, and to understand what is not understood. Attendants of the public lecture had finally raised different scientific questions on the topic where the speaker elaborated on most of them at the African Union Hall, main campus.
