The RAS runs, sponsors, or otherwise supports, a wide range of meetings, including a major programme of regular
monthly meetings held October to May covering all aspects of astronomy (
including cosmology, astrobiology, cosmochemistry, astroparticle physics, computational astrophysics, etc.) and solid-earth geophysics (
including geophysical fluid dynamics, planetary sciences, solar-terrestrial physics, etc.), planetary sciences, and solar-terrestrial physics.
In 2008/9, these monthly meetings will be held in the lecture theatres of the
Geological Society and the new
RAS lecture theatre, all at Burlington House. In April, the meeting is subsumed into the annual week- long RAS
National Astronomy Meeting which in 2010 will be in Glasgow. The standard format is a pair of Specialist Discussion meetings (except in May when, to accommodate the AGM, there is just one ), followed by a more general Astronomy & Geophysics ('Ordinary') meeting, open to the general public.
Webcasts and podcasts
are available for many recent meetings, as are
alerts of forthcoming meetings.
A
map is available, showing the location of the above venues.
The
External Meetings Calendar lists meetings organised by other bodies in which the RAS has some involvement. (An archive of previous listings is also available.)
