The society exists to provide people with a chance to learn about space, observe the sky and socialise with people who share this interest. No prior experience or knowledge is required - just come along and learn about the cosmos!

Our speaker events happen on Monday evenings during term-time at 8.30pm in the Denys Wilkinson Building on Keble Road. At these events guest speakers come to tell us about their latest research.

On Thursday evenings we take a telescope out to Port Meadow to observe the night sky, weather permitting! If the weather does not permit then we will have a social event instead, perhaps going to G&D’s to console ourselves with delicious ice cream. Join the mailing list to be kept up to date with meeting times.

We also make and launch small model rockets once a term and once or twice a term we have the opportunity to use the Physics department’s Wetton telescope.
