About Us

We are a friendly, relaxed group of people sharing a common interest in all things astronomical. Our membership ranges from complete beginners to those experienced in observing and the more technical aspects such as astrophotography.

We meet at Summercourt New Memorial Hall, Cornwall on the third Thursdays of the month throughout the year. From October to March we also hold practical meetings on the first Thursday of each month at Trevarrian Holiday Park. All meetings start at 7:30pm.

Further information on the club, how to find us, what we do and Contact Us details can be found under the ‘Home’ menu dropdown at the very top of this page.

Our Next Meeting

November 5th: Trevarrian

Practical club night taking place on the 1st Thursday of every month until March next year. The emphasis of each meeting is to get out under the stars with our scopes ( so please bring yours along with you) and do some observing.

If the weather doesn’t play ball, we will be arranging some observing or imaging techniques to enhance your practical skills.

Our Next Public Event

November 21st Sun & Stars : Carnewas

The Sixth observing event for 2026 at NT Carnewas. The event, as always, is dependant on clear skies, but this evening we hope to be able to see sunspot activity on the surface of the Sun before it sets. As the skies darken, we will be able to observe a waxing Gibbous Moon and details of Saturn and her Rings and Moons as they rise out of the twilight.

The event is open to anyone who wishes to come along and we kick off at 15:00
