This is the motto of the International Astronomical Union (IAU) Office for Astronomy Outreach. If “All” is a very vast term to define society and its communities, “Astronomy” as a body of knowledge is also
similarly vast. This project, “Big Ideas in Astronomy”, explores the issue:
“What should science-educated citizens know about astronomy?”
As a result of several discussions, meetings, workshops, presentations,
telecoms and text interactions in this document we propose a set of
Big Ideas in Astronomy, a Roadmap to Astronomy Literacy Goals. This
document establishes the “Big Ideas” and supporting concepts that all
citizens on our planet should know about astronomy.
Big Ideas in Astronomy builds on the pioneering American Association
for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Project 2061. The AAAS Project
2061 started in 1986, the year Halley’s Comet passed near Earth. The
AAAS was intrigued by what affects children’s connection to the natural
world — who were starting school then will see the return of the Comet.
What scientific and technological changes will they also see in their
lifetime? How can education prepare them to make sense of how the
world works; to think critically and independently; and to lead interesting, responsible, and productive lives in a culture increasingly shaped
by science and technology? Big Ideas in Astronomy also expands on the
work developed by other scientific disciplines and projects, namely: Climate Science Literacy, Earth Science Literacy Principles, Ocean Literacy
and Big Ideas of Science.
