ASTRONET is an ERA-NET led by a group of European funding agencies, including ESO and ESA. Its aim is to establish a comprehensive, long-term planning process for all of European astronomy – at all wavelengths, from the ground and from space, and for all of Europe. By addressing both long-term scientific goals, infrastructure needs, and resource management procedures, ASTRONET seeks to consolidate the continued development of European astronomy as a front-line player in the field.
