Big Impact Astronomy Podcast

Impact Astronomy features outreach astronomers using astronomy for social progress, introducing STEM in developing countries, encouraging girls to consider STEM careers, providing relief, inspiration, and hope for young people in countries in crisis, and more.

Astronomy is the most accessible and universal of all the sciences. Where there are no labs in schools, there is an astronomy lab overhead. Where there is no culture of science, traditional lore connects people with the stars. In schools and universities, refugee camps, children’s hospitals, and more, astronomy is used to improve lives, communities, and society.

Impact Astronomy is brought to you by Astronomy for Equity, a nonprofit devoted to supporting the organizations and individuals using astronomy to improve the lives of unserved individuals and communities worldwide.
