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.
