International Astronomy Day (one in spring and another in the fall) is a grassroots movement designed to share the joy of astronomy with the general population by "Bringing Astronomy to the People".
On Astronomy Day, thousands of people who have never looked through a telescope will have an opportunity to experience space close up. Astronomy clubs, science museums, observatories, universities, planetariums, laboratories, libraries, and nature centers host special events and activities to acquaint their population with local astronomical resources and facilities.
Many of these events are located at easily accessible locations, including shopping malls, parks, and urban centers, to bring astronomy to the people. Astronomy Week begins with Astronomy Day (Monday) and ends the following Sunday.
