The American Astronomical Society (AAS) has released the audio and video of the invited and prize lectures from their recent meeting in Austin. Furthermore, they are also making it available (eventually) via iTunes.

The AAS is now making the invited and prize lectures at each AAS meeting available online for those who could not attend the meeting, but would still like to benefit from the invited and prize talks.

Audio and video versions are available at:

The talks will be indexed on iTunes (under podcasts) by mid-March and also available on the AAS webpage.

These are very interesting talks by notable professional astronomers. At least one of the talks is aimed at the general public but almost all of them will be interesting to amateur astronomers in some way.

Thank you AAS! Nice to see you are “getting it” when it comes to making your content widely available on the Internet.
