Attend the Symposium on Telescope Science

The annual SAS Symposium on Telescope Science has become one of the premier events for amateur astronomers and for building pro-am collaborations. Amateur and Professional astronomers make presentations covering a wide range of topics, including imaging basics, photometry, spectroscopy, instrumentation, and more.

Their observations range from near-Earth to the edges of the universe. If you’re interested in seeing how you can contribute to astronomical research using amateur-scale equipment, this is one event you should plan to attend each year.

The proceedings of previous Symposia and videos of many of the presentations are freely available here.

Upcoming Symposium

The SAS-2025 Symposium will be held June 19-20-21, 2025 in Ontario, California. Registration will open in December 2024. Registration links are:
