Derby & District Astronomical Society host monthly introduction to astronomy sessions on the third Friday of each month from September to June except for December, to avoid clashing with Christmas.

These sessions are aimed specifically at beginners and may include advice and help on using telescopes, finding your way around the night sky, astrophotography etc.

You are welcome to bring your telescope, and there may be an opportunity for some observing from the back garden of The Friends Meeting House if weather permits.

Please contact the Derby and District Astronomical Society Secretary for more details.
