LATEST EVENTS:
​
From 1 to 4 October 2023, the IAU Office for Astronomy Outreach (OAO) will continue the legacy of celebrating 100 Hours of Astronomy . This year’s theme is One Planet. We aim to create an experience that fosters a sense of unity, connection, and togetherness among the public, inspired by the camaraderie astronauts feel when returning from space missions, called the Overview Effect. This series of events will celebrate the beauty of our shared planet and promote global cooperation, environmental stewardship, and a collective commitment to a better future:
