On the show of Wednesday, March 27th, 2024, we devoted the first half hour to Current Affairs, as, after reading the front pages of the newspapers, we discussed the debate in parliament on the motion of no confidence against the government with the political analyst, Maria Karaklioumi, who, among other things, made an assessment of how the events of recent months have changed the political correlations in view of the European elections and mainly, after the anniversary of the Tempe tragedy.
At the end of the first hour, we connected to Corinth and spoke with the CEO of the Corinth Canal S.A., Mr. Vasilis Andrikopoulos, for the completion of the restoration of its slopes and the return to traffic, almost three years after the initial interruption that was imposed due to falling rocks. The restoration work was time-consuming and was done by the Ministry of Infrastructure, but, as Mr. Andrikopoulos revealed, the bridge will be opened to traffic on April 25th, as on the 28th, three days later, the ship carrying the Olympic flame will pass.
In the second hour and before the international news with Ivana Djordjevic and the sports news by Christos Kontos, we had a very interesting discussion with Professor of Space Physics at the University of Athens, astronomer, Mr. Xenophon Moussas, who is also one of the protagonists of the study of the famous construction of the Antikythera Mechanism, which led to the construction of a large-sized replica of it, which, for almost 2 months, has been installed in the small square of the campus of Sonora in Mexico, as a result of the collaboration of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens with the University of Sonora. The square, in fact, has already been renamed Antikythera Mechanism Square.
