戈登·邁爾斯業餘成就獎

戈登·邁爾斯業餘成就獎(Gordon Myers Amateur Achievement Award)2018 年之前稱為太平洋天文學會業餘成就獎(Amateur Achievement Award of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific)是太平洋天文學會管理的九個年度天文獎項之一。它旨在表彰「那些未以專業身份受僱於天文學領域的人士對天文學業餘天文學做出的重大貢獻」[1]。這些貢獻可以是在觀測天文學領域,也可以來自天文技術領域[2]。該獎項自1979年起頒發給來自不同國家的業餘天文學家,已成為地域分布最廣泛的天文學獎項之一[3]
