Only about 60 of those States, however, are sufficiently involved in astronomy to belong to the International Astronomical Union (IAU).

Well the answer is the science of radio astronomy.

(vi) Matters relating to astronomy

The Institut des sciences de l apos univers Centre national de la recherche scientifique, the Observatoire de Haute Provence (OHP) and the Observatoire Midi Pyrénées (OMP) have therefore proposed to collaborate in developing education in astronomy and astrophysics and in training students in the universities of those countries using the facilities of an astrophysical laboratory equipped with a telescope of 60 centimetres in diameter.

D. Developing astronomy and space science worldwide 72 74 13 INTRODUCTION

In 1994, SAAO organized the Annual Review of South African Astronomy and Astrophysics, which included participants from overseas and from nine South African universities and institutes.

The IAU Working Group has been particularly interested in astronomy in Central America, north Africa and Viet Nam.

Although IAU can provide only limited financial resources, it can extend assistance through its international schools for young astronomers and the newly instituted Teaching for Astronomy Development programme.

There's also world history and astronomy.

Leading researchers in the fields of astronomy, planetary science, astrophysics, paleontology and astronautics assembled from around the world to present their ideas on various related topics.

The topics were chosen from among the following fields international cooperation in basic space science education for space science solar terrestrial interaction planetary science space astronomy and astrophysics cosmology and databases and on line data in astronomy.

A good example of this is the close working relationship between astronomers in Morocco and those at the University of Nice, in France.

Depending on its location, the telescope may be used for research by professional or amateur astronomers, or for the training of astronomers.

Its calibration is being executed in cooperation with RIAN and the University of Illinois Department of Astronomy, at Urbana, Illinois.

The proposed topic was Science and education (including astronomy) .

Regional cooperation between the astronomers of Asia has a high potential for the development of astronomy in some of the smaller countries.

In addition, the Institute participated in studies for future ESA (STARS) and CNES (COROT) astronomy missions related to asteroseismology.

21. The Space Applications Division has begun to maintain a database of amateur astronomy societies and astronomical societies in order to meet the needs of Sri Lankan schools for observation facilities.

AIUB, Zimmerwald, Switzerland.

About 10 years ago, IAU formed a Working Group for the Worldwide Development of Astronomy, reflecting its growing concern for astronomers in developing countries since the end of the Second World War.

Representatives of the European Space Agency (ESA), Committee on Space Research (COSPAR), International Academy of Astronautics (IAA), International Astronautical Federation (IAF), International Astronomical Union (IAU), International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) and International Space University (ISU) also attended the session.

Culture is in fact the origin of civilization civilization is the origin of science and science, today, is the source of spectacular, revolutionary scientific discoveries.

(f) Basic space science and its benefits a paper examining the status of knowledge on the structure and evolution of the Universe, the solar system and life on Earth, perspectives of ground based and spaceborne astronomy relating to the impact of space activities on astronomy and the cultural, social and educational aspects of astronomy

This is from their rule book, the International Astronomical Union.

And the regular astronomers were scornful about this.
