ASTRONET - a new Science Vision and Infrastructure Roadmap for European Astronomy

Aims and scope

Astronet is a collaboration of European funding agencies, institutes and research infrastructures with the aim of providing a forum for improving coordination for Astronomy. Its programme is currently focussed on developing and publishing a new Science Vision and Infrastructure Roadmap for Astronomy (the previous reports were in 2015) which will detail the status of research across the entirety of Astronomy and consider the challenges for the science in coming years. The report will also look at the infrastructures likely to be required to deliver these next steps. In this session the report Editors will present the status of the report and start the process of a second and final community consultation, prior to publication later this year
