Over 180 cosmochemists, astrophysical modeling experts, and astronomers met on the island of Kauai, Hawaii at the Workshop on Formation of the First Solids in the Solar System, from November 7-9, 2011. The meeting was hosted by the Hawaii Institute of Geophysics and Planetology (HIGP), School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST), the NASA Astrobiology Institute, and the Institute for Astronomy (IfA), all at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Conveners were our colleagues Sasha Krot, Ed Scott, Jonathan Williams, Gary Huss, and Martin Bizzarro (Natural History Museum of Denmark), and Yuri Amelin (Australian National University). The meeting was dedicated to Professor Klaus Keil (University of Hawaii) to honor his distinguished career in meteoritics and cosmochemistry. Great data and ideas abound, and pressing questions remain in this vibrant area of research. We give an overview of the workshop to try to capture the essence of the galactic-scale issues discussed by this diverse gathering of people trying to figure out our origins.
