astronomy club

Celestial observers' society

An astronomy club is a group of enthusiasts who gather to observe celestial objects, share equipment like telescopes, and discuss topics related to space and stargazing.

Most clubs organize viewing nights, often at dark-sky locations away from city lights: The astronomy club meets monthly at the observatory.

Members range from casual hobbyists to serious amateurs tracking planets, meteor showers, and eclipses.
