Welcome To Project Night Sky

Project Night Sky is an independent initiative and a body consisting of amateur astronomers, and membership is open to all interested persons, regardless of their knowledge or experience.

Project Night Sky was initiated when the founding members recognised the potential and need to provide an interesting pastime to those that "wish upon a little star". Not only was it envisaged to provide a great hobby, but also to bring astronomy closer to those that don't have the means thereto, and also to provide the study of astronomy with invaluable research and information.

Astronomy is an interest that can be deep and intense or light and casual. It really doesn't matter how deep your passion lies, because we cater for everyone! Whatever part of astronomy gives you goose bumps: maybe its just appreciating the view, and beauty of the universe, or a deeper desire to contribute to the advancement of this wonderful science, playing with gadgets and gizmos, or just want to talk about the stars.

Whatever it is that gets you going, this is where you want to be at! It doesn't matter if you don't own a telescope or even binoculars, your eyes are just as good a viewing tool.
