TheJackson-Gwilt Medal is an award that has been issued by theRoyal Astronomical Society (RAS) since 1897. The original criteria were for the invention, improvement, or development ofastronomical instrumentation or techniques; for achievement inobservational astronomy; or for achievement in research into thehistory of astronomy. In 2017, the history of astronomy category was removed for subsequent awards and was transferred to a new award, theAgnes Mary Clerke Medal.[1]

The frequency of the medal has varied over time. Initially, it was irregular, with gaps of between three and five years between awards. From 1968 onwards, it was awarded regularly every three years; from 2004 every two years; and since 2008 it has been awarded every year.

The award is named after Hannah Jacksonnée Gwilt. She was a niece ofJoseph Gwilt (an architect andFellow of the RAS) and daughter ofGeorge Gwilt (another Fellow); Hannah donated the original funds for the medal.[2] It is the second oldest award issued by the RAS, after theGold Medal.[2]
