Applications for 2010 internships in meteoritics are now open.

The F. A. Paneth Meteorite Trust was set up to encourage and further research concerned with meteorites with funds from the late Professor F. A. Paneth. The Trust is administered by the Royal Astronomical Society. The Trust offers grants to fund several summer internships for undergraduates to experience research into meteoritics (and closely allied fields). The intention is to foster the next generation of meteoritics researchers. Applications for projects in the field of meteoritics are accepted from institutions of higher education in Europe or from individuals in association with a named institution.
