We will be delighted to give you a warm welcome as a new member of our Society.   Our members are of all levels of experience and knowledge of astronomy — many are beginners.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

Membership of the Flamsteed includes required membership of the NMM (adult rate normally £40 alone) which provides an opportunity to support the work of the NMM and ROG and confers many benefits including concessionary rates for many NMM/ROG talks, courses and seminars, shop and cafe discounts, newsletters, a programme of member events, and free personal entry to the Peter Harrison Planetarium and special exhibitions (like the Nelson and Napoleon exhibition in 2005).  If you are already a member of the NMM (formerly the Friends of the NMM) please enter your membership number in the box indicated above — your NMM member subscription will be deducted from the Flamsteed subscription payable.

Membership of the Flamsteed (including membership of the NMM— required) is £70 per person a year, which provides entry to the published programme of monthly meetings, on-site workshops, and observing sessions. See right for details of membership types and concessionary rates available.   There may be additional charges for optional outside visits and events.  Members of the Flamsteed must be over 18 years of age.

You can find lots of information about us on this website in the About Us section and also about our previous meetings and events.  If you have any further questions, please use the Contact Us section.  If you’re undecided about joining please feel free to come along to one of our pub evenings and meet some of the members (see the Home page or Observing Diary for dates).  The Flamsteed provides excellent value for money.  We support the work of the Royal Observatory Greenwich through donations of our time, equipment, and money, while enhancing the knowledge, experience and enjoyment of astronomy for our members through a programme of first-class lectures and other events.  We have access to the professional astronomy staff at the ROG as well as enjoying a world heritage site and the equipment and facilities of the ROG and National Maritime Museum.  The Flamsteed is a special interest group within the membership organisation of the National Maritime Museum.
