Collection 

First year anniversary collection

In January 2017, we published the first issue of Nature Astronomy, a new journal for the astronomy, astrophysics and planetary science communities. Nature Astronomy was launched with the aim of bridging these communities, publishing significant and novel results, while also offering a platform for community-focused pieces, comments, perspectives and reviews. During our first year, we published papers covering a diverse array of topics ranging from the Sun, planets of our Solar system, exoplanets, stars, galaxies, black holes, cosmology, instrumentation and everything in between.  In this Collection, we showcase some of this content, divided into four broad categories according to topic. We look forward to another exciting year ahead of us.
