MAS Meetings

Memphis Clear Sky Clock

General Meetings

Our General Meetings are generally held at 8:00 PM on the first Friday of each month. (see the schedule for possible January, June and July exceptions)

We meet in auditorium S153 of the Science Building on the campus of Christian Brothers University.

Two presentations on topics of astronomical interest are made at each meeting. One or both are suitable for those beginning the study of astronomy.

Observing Sessions

At least one observing session is scheduled each month at a dark-sky site, near the time of the new moon on a Saturday night.

Visitors are always welcome at meetings and observing sessions. Members with telescopes will be happy to show you celestial objects and point out features of the sky not ordinarily visible in Memphis or other large cities because of light pollution, the glare of wasted energy being poured into the night sky.
