Welcome to the Observatory!

This site is intended for anyone interested in astronomy, and particularly anyone who would like to be a member of the Bootham School Astronomy Society. This membership is available to all members of the Bootham community, and students from other York schools who have attended the ISSP course on astronomy at Bootham. If you choose to subscribe by email, you will receive an email of any new post within about twenty four hours. There will also be twitter updates before an observatory session, and you are recommended to follow me on twitter using the button on the right of this screen.

Finally, the skies are dark in the evenings

As the evening twilight gets earlier, we can reopen the observatory for visits.

I would like to invite all of you to join me for an autumn constellation tour from 7.00pm - 8.30pm on Tuesday 16th October. Please remember to check this website closer to the time - if the weather is poor, I may have to post a cancellation notice on the day, but hopefully the sky will be clear!

Dress warmly!
