The International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) was founded in Stockholm on
August 16, 1960. Since that time, IAA has brought together the world's foremost
experts in the disciplines of astronautics on a regular basis to recognize the
accomplishments of their peers, to explore and discuss cutting-edge issues in
space research and technology, and to provide direction and guidance in the
non-military uses of space and the ongoing exploration of the solar system.
The IAA works towards promoting the development of astronautics for peaceful
purposes, recognize individuals who have distinguished themselves in a related
branch of science or technology and provide a programme through which members
may contribute to international endeavors for the advancement of aerospace
science. It works closely with the International
Astronautical Federation, national and international space agencies.
