Astronomical & Space Societies

Astronomical and space enthusiast societies can be great sources of advice and encouragement to those starting out in recreational or amateur astronomy and space science. They can also be places where you can make some good friends.

If you belong to a society that is not listed here, please email us the details and we'll have it added pronto.

Note that some of the entries in this list actually link to email addresses for contact people instead of web sites. These email addresses are not regularly checked, so it you find one that doesn't work, again please email us.
