Two IAU data centers, one at the Lowell Observatory and the other at Meudon, were organized in the early 1960s for the purpose of establishing a collection of planetary data and images accessible to all qualified scientists. These centers trace their origin to an IAU resolution sponsored by Commission 16 in 1961. Ours at the Lowell Observatory, known as the Planetary Research Center, was also recommended by the U. S. Lunar and Planetary Missions Board and by the U. S. Space Sciences Board Panel on Earth-Based Planetary Astronomy. Since its inception, our Center has been supported by a grant from NASA Headquarters.
