Welcome to AstroSoc!

Welcome to the Astrosoc, the University of Leicester's Astronomical Society. Bringing space and astronomy to everyone. Our main aim is to increase and activate interest in astronomy both within the university and outside. We are a Student Union club and proudly proclaim that everyone is welcome to join. All levels of knowledge, experience and abilities are welcome. All that is required is that you wrap up warm and and prepare to be amazed at the wonders of the universe.

We are an active society and hold regular astronomy meetings, observing sessions and trips to the United Kingdom's greatest space attractions. We work side by side with many professional and amateur astronomy groups and encourage our members to network with the astronomy community.

We are a friendly society with an active social calendar. If you want to come and check us out then feel free to catch up with us at one of our events. Invite your friends, invite their friends, astronomy is for everyone!

A Happy New Year!

What a fantastic year 2007 was for AstroSoc! With exploding comets lighting up the sky and many fantastic planets to see the year just kept on getting better and better! Our last social at Poppadoms was gastronomically amazing also! We filled that place to the rafters! We hope that 2008 is just as good. Look out this year for more observing with the big telescopes and do not miss our awesome trip to Greenwich observatory! Keep your ears to the ground and your eyes to the heavens for a bumper 2008! Happy skywatching!
