New Hampshire Astronomical Society

The New Hampshire Astronomical Society is a wholly volunteer New Hampshire (USA) chartered non-profit educational organization dedicated to furthering public awareness of Astronomy. This is accomplished via public observing sessions, demonstrations, astronomical slide shows, discussions, and talks. NHAS provides these services on request and free of charge to any organization, including schools, libraries, clubs, etc.

Regular monthly events include a "Skywatch" open to the public at the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center in Concord, NH and club meetings at which club business is transacted, followed by a presentation on a specific aspect of astronomy.

NHAS also sponsors regular events open to members and guests including a mid-Winter all-night observing session at our observatory in Hillsborough, NH; the annual Messier Marathon held in the Spring; promotion of International Astronomy Day events held for the public in May; mid-Summer all-night observing sessions at the Society's Hillsborough observatory; and our late-Summer trip to Springfield, Vermont for the annual Stellafane meeting of amateur telescope makers and astronomers.
