The ADASS Program Organizing Committee is pleased to announce the winner of the annual ADASS Prize for an Outstanding Contribution
to Astronomical Software.

The 2022 recipient of the prize is the Astropy Project. Since its formal beginning in the Fall of 2011, Astropy Project has been a community effort with the combination of institutional resources and many dedicated contributors. It has grown over the years and been used by many projects and individual astronomers. The first core astropy package release was version 0.2 in 2013. It is now at version 5.1. It is known to almost everyone involved in astronomy software development.

This award is presented in recognition of the outstanding contribution of Astropy Project to the astronomical software community and the positive impact it has on many astronomy projects. The Astropy Project is made possible through the hard work of hundreds of people in the community. Please see https://www.astropy.org/team.html and https://www.astropy.org/credits.html for details.
