Copied from an email sent to Harvard SPS:

> The largest single listing of such positions is the NSF Research
> Experience for Undergraduates Program (REU).  The astronomy programs are
> listed at
> http://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/reu/list_result.cfm?unitid=5045
> but you should also consult the physics listings (which contain
> astronomical opportunities)

> NASA offers many exciting opportunities, and a good place to start is
> their USRP page at
> http://usrp.usra.edu/
> Note that there are many opportunities at individual NASA Centers that are
> not listed on the former page, so you may need to dig around a little to
> find them.  You might want to start with 3 NASA Centers in particular:
> Jet Propulsion Labs, Ames Research Center, and Goddard Space Flight
> Center.  Some particularly promising leads are the following:
