2009: International Year of Astronomy

To honor the achievements of Galileo (I think), 2009 has been declared the "International Year of Astronomy," which plans for public events around the world to celebrate and increase people's knowledge on what we think is going on in the cosmos. To celebrate this, Nature magazine has devoted an entire issue to the past and future of astronomy. The articles are quite good and pretty interesting, go here if you want to read them for yourself. Hope you enjoy!
