IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt0We had 2 unusual sources of large revenue in 2023: First, we received a contribution of $102,520 from the estate of one of our members. Second, we always host an annual conference that is self supporting, with minimal revenue. In 2023, we invited the other 6 regions of planetariums in the US to join us. This resulted in a very large revenue of $225,316 but it also increased our expenses for this conference to $216,269, well beyond our usual amount.
