Title

Gearing Up for the Next 125 Years: Where Should Astronomy EPO and the ASP be Heading?

Abstract

In 2014, the Astronomical Society of the Pacific will celebrate its 125th anniversary, commemorating a century and a quarter of advancing astronomy, education, and science literacy during which human perception and understanding of the Universe has undergone revolutionary change. What lies ahead for astronomy, astronomy and science education and outreach, and how can the ASP respond? Participants joined a discussion of the issues (current and future) and offered thoughts on how the ASP (and other organizations) can help to craft both the dialog and the solutions to the challenges we see ahead.
