Welcome to IAU 2027, an esteemed assembly of astronomical scholars and practitioners converging upon the timeless city of Rome, with the Auditorium Parco della Musica as our distinguished host. Rome, a city steeped in millennia of history, stands as a symbol of human ingenuity, intellectual pursuit, and cultural richness. As the birthplace of Western civilization and a cradle of scientific inquiry since antiquity, Rome serves as an inspirational backdrop for the exploration of the universe’s mysteries.
Delegates from across the globe will assemble to engage in rigorous discourse, collaborative endeavors, and the dissemination of cutting-edge research. With a commitment to expanding the horizons of human understanding and fostering international cooperation, IAU 2027 pledges to elevate the discourse surrounding celestial inquiry and propel the field into new realms of discovery.
As delegates gather in Rome for IAU 2027, they are not only participating in a scientific conference but also embarking on a journey through time and space, tracing the footsteps of Galileo, Kepler, and countless other luminaries who have looked to the heavens from this storied city. In this spirit of exploration and homage to the legacy of discovery, we invite you to join us in Rome, where tradition meets innovation, and where the stars themselves seem to align in celebration of human curiosity and endeavor.
