243rd Meeting of the American Astronomical Society

The American Astronomical Society (AAS) is a major international organization of professional astronomers, astronomy educators, and amateur astronomers.
 

The AAS was established in 1899 and is based in Washington, DC. Our membership of about 8,200 individuals also includes physicists, mathematicians, geologists, engineers, and others whose research and educational interests lie within the broad spectrum of subjects now comprising the astronomical sciences.

The mission of the AAS is to enhance and share humanity's scientific understanding of the universe as a diverse and inclusive astronomical community.

The SETI Institute will host a booth in the exhibit hall of this year's AAS meeting, and numerous SETI Institute scientists will be presenting their research to the community.
