STARFLEET Sciences Astrometrics

“Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. Its five-year
mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go
where no one has gone before.” Star Trek, created by Gene Rodenberry.

STARFLEET Sciences Astrometrics’ mission is to explore our amazing Universe and beyond through astrophotography, research, activities for our members, and information sharing about space programs from around the world. Astrometrics is a Division of the Sciences Auxiliary and is a place where Sciences members can delve deeper into the world of space exploration. Join us as we boldly go on this fantastic mission!
