About ASAP
Big things have small beginnings.
Attendees of the original “Astrobiology in Asia” meeting at AbSciCon 2019 showed enthusiasm about (1) promoting astrobiology in their home countries or in the Asia-Pacific countries where their current affiliations are located; (2) the idea of having a regional meeting equivalent to AbSciCon; and (3) the idea of having an organization to facilitate the above activities. They reconvened to discuss steps going forward. Here is a short summary.
