Women in astronomy

The UKRC has valuable resources profiling women in astronomy, astrophysics and space science, engineering and technology.

The UKRC Astronomy Blog: we ran this blog throughout the International Year of Astronomy. Eleven entries by eleven exceptional women in very different areas of astronomy. Read how they became involved and what makes them passionate about space.

Women and astronomy bloggers: the UKRC's growing list of women who blog about astronomy, astrophysics and outer space. A dazzling and very varied array of writers.

The twitter list: our list of women who tweet with a strong interest - amateur or professional - in astronomy and space. Again, the list is always open to additions. We hope you find it useful.

Other women in astronomy resources: some useful websites, books, films and so on.
