الوصف: Astrotourism consists of activities focused on observing night skies and celestial phenomena in natural spaces, which contributes to communities’ involvement, empowerment and participation and to regional development. In addition to documenting the increased academic research on astrotourism, this literature review sought to construct a general theoretical framework for this field by analysing scholars’ contributions and highlighting the ways in which this topic has been viewed over time.

The results highlight the most researched themes over the years, investigations’ characteristics and gaps in the literature that open doors for future empirical research. The main issues already addressed by the academic community are related to the problems of light pollution, sustainability and regional development, among others, but much room remains for other studies ; El astroturismo consiste en actividades enfocadas a la observación de cielos nocturnos y fenómenos celestes en espacios naturales, lo que contribuye al involucramiento, empoderamiento y participación de las comunidades y al desarrollo regional.
