 the astronomical sciences. NSF MPS funds foundational astronomical science
 s research and instrumentation focused on exploring space and advancing fu
 ndamental understanding of the universe.In August, MPS announced five new 
 funding opportunities, including MPS Astronomical Sciences Research Progra
 ms (MPS Astro). MPS Astro contains three distinct programs:Astronomical 
 Sciences Core Research.Astronomical Sciences Technology and Instrumentatio
 n.Astronomical Sciences Innovations.MPS is holding four office hour events
  in October to share information with the U.S. astronomical sciences commu
 nity about these programs and answer questions.Dates, topics, and registra
 tion links for each event are as follows:Wednesday, Oct. 7Astronomical Sci
 ences Core Research*Register for the Oct. 7 event.Thursday, Oct. 8Astronom
 ical Sciences Technology and InstrumentationRegister for the Oct. 8 event.
 Wednesday, Oct. 14Astronomical Sciences InnovationsRegister for the Oct. 1
 4 event.Thursday, Oct. 15Astronomical Sciences Core Research*Register for 
 the Oct. 15 event.Each event will include a program overview followed by a
  Q&A session.*The Oct. 7 and Oct. 15 events will cover the same material, 
 so there is no need to attend both.For additional assistance with accessib
