Welcome to the AstronomyOutreach network!
This organization was formed in the year 2000 to popularize and recognize individuals and organizations committed to the educational outreach in astronomy and space science.
Eleven years later the AstronomyOutreach network moved to this MediaWiki platform to allow individuals and organizations to create pages specifically related to astronomy and space science with an emphasis on educational public outreach (EPO).
Benefits
Here you can learn how organizations and individuals can receive benefits, recognition, and learn how to get involved to help people in your community understand the wonders of the sky and the importance of science in our everyday lives by sharing your knowledge and telescope with the public.
