About the Hamilton Amateur Astronomers

The Hamilton Amateur Astronomers is a group of individuals dedicated to the enjoyment and advancement of astronomy.

• Informative monthly meetings at the Hamilton Spectator Auditorium, featuring both amateur and professional astronomers.
• Beginner's Group talks to teach newcomers the basics needed to get the most enjoyment out of stargazing.
• Star nights at the Binbrook Conservation Area where both members and visitors have the opportunity to observe away from city lights through their own telescopes and those of other members. If you bring your scope to Binbrook, other members are happy to help you set it up and find things with it!
• Ten issues of our newsletter Event Horizon.
• Opportunities to participate in our public education programmes, including the possibility of giving shows at the McCallion Planetarium at McMaster University.
• Special group activities such as the  Cosmology Discussion Group, Book Club etc.
• Telescope-making classes for those interested in building their own reflecting telescope.

2011 Events Brochure is now available online.
