Medaglia Eddington

La medaglia Eddington (in inglese Eddington Medal), istituita in onore di Arthur Eddington, è un premio consegnato dalla Royal Astronomical Society per meriti nella ricerca nel campo dell'astrofisica.

Inizialmente assegnata non tutti gli anni, è stata poi assegnata annualmente tra il 1958 e il 1972, poi ogni tre anni fino al 2005, quindi ogni due anni fino al 2013. Da allora l'assegnazione è tornata annuale.
