The Royal Society has been the national scientific academy of the United Kingdom since the 17th Century. Its mission is to promote and support excellence in science, both within the UK and globally, as well as fostering public engagement with science. The Society founded the world's oldest continuously published journal in 1665, and has been working to innovate in the publishing landscape ever science, while providing high-level service for authors, editors, and reviewers. This talk will highlight some of the key features of our journals, what sets them apart from other journals, how we support the publication of astronomy and astrophysics research, and why we want you to consider submitting to our journals.
