Northamptonshire Natural History Society's Astronomy Section. Our meetings take place on the second and last Monday of the month, starting at 7.30pm.

The Astronomy Section is the original and largest astronomical society in Northamptonshire, formed in 1957. We cater for all levels of interest in astronomy, for people who are young and not-so-young, from armchair astronomers through to active observers. We host an entertaining and thought-provoking programme of meetings, observing evenings and various public outreach events throughout the year.

A huge sunspot group appeared on the Sun and is slowly traversing the disk. Aurorae? Who knows, but the Moon will interfere 🙄
