Anyone can join. No experience required.
You just need:
- An interest in astronomy
- Curiosity and enthusiasm
- A friendly attitude
You don’t need:
- Expert knowledge of telescopes, astrophotography, science, or the night sky
- Your own telescope
Benefits
- Connect with fellow enthusiasts. Join our astronomy club and meet like-minded people who share your fascination with the night sky. Whether your interests lie in deep-sky objects, planets, the Moon and Sun, or visual and astrophotography work, you’ll find others keen to explore the same areas.
- Try before you buy. Members can borrow telescopes, eyepieces, and other equipment, giving you the chance to experiment with different setups before investing in new gear or upgrades.
- Access exceptional facilities. The club is home to an impressive 20-inch computerised reflecting telescope, permanently housed in a dome at a designated Dark Sky Discovery Site. Members can use this telescope for both visual observing and astrophotography.
- Explore our library. Enjoy access to a well-stocked astronomy library, with a wide range of books available for loan.
- Observe together. Take part in members’ observing nights and stay on after our monthly talks for shared observing sessions – great opportunities to learn, swap tips, and enjoy the wonders of the night sky together.
- Get involved in outreach. Help with our public open evenings and outreach events, and experience the joy of seeing someone’s reaction as they observe Jupiter or the Orion Nebula for the first time.
- Stay informed. Members receive our newsletter, Extra Terrestrial, featuring astronomy news, member articles, and stunning photographs.
