public communication of astronomy  

Definition

  • The public communication of astronomy shares many features with that of other scientific disciplines: It has been done both by scientists and others; over time, the audiences have grown, thanks to material and social factors, and now include women, children, and most social classes; and all the media available have always been used. However, it is different in at least two important ways. [Source: Encyclopedia of Science and Technology Communication; Astronomy, Public Communication of]
