BREAKING: Siam Astronomy Moves Youth Science Giveaway Forward and Extends Entry Period to 30 Days
Prize arrives early in Thailand; activity now opens 5 October 2026, with review on 3–6 November and winner announcement on 6 November
THAILAND, 3 October 2026 — Siam Astronomy is issuing an urgent schedule update for the Siam Astronomy Youth Project: Dinosaur & Science Communication Giveaway after the signed Isabella Sermon prize arrived safely in Thailand earlier than expected today.
The activity had previously been scheduled to open on 10 October 2026 and run through 17 October 2026.
Following the early arrival of the prize, Siam Astronomy has decided to move the opening date forward to 5 October 2026 and extend the participation period to a full 30 days.
The new public participation period will run from 5 October through 3 November 2026, using Thailand time (ICT, UTC+7).
The countdown begins on 3 October, leaving two days before the activity officially opens.
