Meta Research Bulletin ©2007
Meta Research, Inc. is a
scientific non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation run by a 7-member Board of
Directors. It was founded in 1991 in response to the broad problem of getting
support to do research on promising but unpopular alternative ideas in
astronomy that have trouble getting funded from the usual sources. The
organization supports and encourages research or observations in connection
with astronomical theories that are in accord with observations and experiment,
add insight or understanding, and make testable predictions; but that are not
otherwise supported solely because they lie outside of the mainstream of the
field of Astronomy.
The name “Meta”
(pronounced with a short “e”) comes from the dictionary meaning of that prefix:
“later or more highly organized or specialized form of; more comprehensive;
transcending; used with the name of a discipline to designate a new but related
discipline designed to deal critically with the original one.”

Our office hours are 9 a.m. to 6
p.m. Pacific Time. Our expeditions are led by Meta Research astronomers. For
eclipses, we go to near the edge of the path of totality, where the view is
most spectacular. Plans for future expeditions are on hold. Check the
“Expeditions” tab at our web site or go directly to <http://eclipseedge.org> to
learn of such plans, which may develop on short notice because of unexpected
astronomical developments.
