Astro2020 Decadal Survey: Report Release and Public Briefing
Report Release and Public Briefing on November 4
What are the key scientific challenges for astronomy and astrophysics in the next decade? Pathways to Discovery in Astronomy and Astrophysics for the 2020s, the National Academies’ latest decadal survey, identifies the most compelling science goals and presents an ambitious program of ground- and space-based activities for future investment. The report recommends critical near-term actions to support the foundations of the profession as well as the technologies and tools needed to carry out the science.
The decadal survey will be publicly released on Thursday, November 4 at 11am ET followed by a
public briefing webinar from 2-3:30pm ET. During the webinar, the decadal survey co-chairs will discuss the key findings and recommendations from the report and take questions from the audience.
