I love spending a Friday night learning more about the universe and looking up. The Society has a mix of lectures, game nights and celestial body observations which is great for lovers of space!
I became a member within 2 visits and the members lead with warmth and enthusiasm for all of your space-related questions 🔭
A must see as a local and tourist of the island.

Amazing experience! The guides were very helpful and gave a detailed lecture about exoplanets. I was intrigued to learn so much this night. As a non-profit organization, you can tell the staff really has a passion for the work they're doing! Definitely a great place I'd recommend

This observatory is a gem! Arrived at 7 PM on a Friday. Got to listen to a private lecture from Stephen Watson — a Principal at NASA’s “JPL” — on the current Clipper Mission to Europa. He stayed to answer all of our Q’s. Wow a treat.
Then headed outside where 3 telescopes were set up to view Mars, Jupiter, and Venus. Seeing Jupiter’s moons will forever be an imprint on my mind. The staff was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Used a laser pointer to explain the night sky
Finally, we climbed to the upstairs observatory where the guide would take viewing requests. For the first time, I got to see the Andromeda Galaxy!
So great for kids. What a fantastic astronomical community
