About Us

Astronomy is the intersection of many domains. Art, science and technology, in particular, are at the heart of the ASTronomy Club's activities. Members of NYP ASTro share a curiosity about the world and an appreciation for its wonders. The experience makes the world come alive.


Watch the stars, launch a (water) rocket, , paint with light, or even introduce the club to something entirely new! You can look forward to gaining knowledge and making friends through a range of fresh and stimulating experiences.
