From October 8 through 10, the closing event of the 3rd Tokyo International Science Festival was held at the Panasonic Center in Ariake, Tokyo. At this three-day event, the ALMA-J Project Office set up a booth with two updated posters and provided detailed explanations of ALMA to visitors on October 9 and 10.

Among visitors, there were people who became interested in ALMA with the news released on October 3. They came to our booth and ask many questions about ALMA.
