Report on the European Astronomical Society Symposium “European Astronomy: Science Vision beyond 2040”
No. 195 (September 2025), 51–51
ESO is currently undertaking the Expanding Horizons process to identify the next ESO Programme, and key to this is to understand what science questions will be important for the astronomical community in the 2040s. To stimulate the community to think about these issues, a symposium was organised at the European Astronomical Society’s (EAS) Annual Meeting in Cork, Ireland in June 2025. The structure of this symposium was developed in collaboration with the EAS Council with the goal of providing a broad view of various topics in astronomy and to incorporate the reports of the main international astronomy organisations and bodies into the plenary part of the symposium.
