The Sheffield Astronomical Society

If you are fascinated by the wonders of the night sky and want to learn more about astronomy and space sciences, you might be interested in joining the Sheffield Astronomical Society. This is a group of amateur enthusiasts who share their passion and knowledge with the public in the Sheffield and South Yorkshire area. They organise regular meetings on the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month, at the Ranmoor Parish Centre – 5 Ranmoor Park Road, Sheffield S10 3GX – at 7:30pm.

At their first meeting of the month, a guest speaker is invited to share their expertise on a specific astronomy topic, usually from Sheffield University. However, thanks to Zoom, they have also hosted speakers from New Zealand and Stockholm in the past. The second meeting of the month is designed for beginners who want to learn more about astronomy. The first part of this meeting is a presentation by one of the society members on a relevant topic. After a short break, the meeting resumes with updates on current space missions, tips on what to observe in the night sky in the coming month, and any other astronomy news items.

The group aims to organize free monthly public sessions, where they showcase their telescopes and share their passion for astronomy. Depending on the season, they either observe the stars and planets at night or use special devices to safely watch the Sun during the day. You can find more information about their events and how to reach them on their website. http://www.sheffieldastro.org.uk
