The Meteoritical Society greatly values that we are able to provide Travel Awards to 93 members to support their participation in this year's annual meeting, to be held in Frankfurt, Germany. Overall, the 2026 Travel Awards combined to total slightly over $110,000. The Travel Awards are possible due to a variety of sources, and we appreciate and are grateful for their support of our annual meeting in this manner. While we are pleased to be able to provide these travel awards, we still regret that we had more applications than we were able to support with the funds we had available. Below is a list of the 2026 recipients, and we're looking forward to seeing those that can join the meeting in Frankfurt!
