Everyone is invited to join the members of the Plymouth Astronomical Society for this one of their regular monthly meetings, which occur at the Rolle Building of Plymouth University on the second Friday of each month from September through to July.

These sessions often involve a presentation by a guest speaker and time for socialising.

The meetings are a great way to meet local astronomers and learn about the Society’s observing events.

Event darkness

The Moon has a big impact on the visibility of celestial bodies in the night sky. Try to plan your stargazing when there is no bright Moon at night as this is when the skies will be at their darkest.

The below chart shows if and when the skies will be at their darkest during this event. Moonlight is shown in light yellow and the Sun's twilight in light blue. Midnight on the date shown is shown as a white line with sunset to the left and sunrise the next morning to the right. A black background with stars shows the best times for stargazing.
