I could not cite it due to YouTube being on a blacklist, but Bill Nye says in a recent video that there are 60,000 members. I changed the page from 50,000 to 60,000. At 5 minutes and 13 seconds in the video "Bill and Ed's Excellent Conversation" on the Planetary Society YouTube Channel.— Precedingunsigned comment added byCaptainBrant (talk •contribs)23:29, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There should probably be a mention ofPlanetary Radio but I'm not sure which section would be best.Eluchil40413:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps the list of notable members could list former members, like the late Paul Newman. -Deep Atlantic Blue (talk)21:35, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The lede says "more than forty thousand international members".The section onThe Planetary Report says, "This magazine reaches over 100,000 members".It seems there are subscribers who are not members, but this distinction is not made in the text. -Ac44ck (talk)19:58, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I see that this link now goes to an apparent shopping (?) site in what appears to be japanese. Could someone with more context confirm this should no longer be listed, and remove it?— Precedingunsigned comment added by8.20.114.10 (talk)01:05, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

According tothis article theAmerican Association for the Advancement of Science dates the photo of the Society's founders to 1970, and not 1980 as stated in the current caption.JezGrove (talk)21:25, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Note that the planetary society is engaged in lobbying efforts in support of NASA.
This makes their efforts somewhat contentious for the astrophysics community, because things like manned flights eat up massive amounts of money while astronomers and astrophysicists get scraps. Astrophysicists do not engage in pissing matches, and so they see their funding periodically pared down to support things that are little more than pseudo-scientific flag-waving exhibitions. For every billion dollars earmarked for manned flight, there are a dozen scientifically important programs shelved.2600:1700:6AE5:2510:0:0:0:24 (talk)00:56, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
