I'm always amazed when I see a site that looks like it was built in the early 00s that is still being kept up to date with their Events and News pages.

Btw, for those very interested it looks like they have a yearly convention in VT, with registration opening May 1 — https://stellafane.org/convention/2025/index.html

I am a member of Stellafane (STMs). The convention every year is amazing. It’s so fun to be surrounded by people who are so interested in astronomy that they travel to a convention out of their own state!

The keynote speaker last year was talking about the James Webb Telescope build, absolutely fascinating. There are tons of things to do. They also have a competition which judges on various aspects of telescopes. I have really enjoyed growing up around this convention.
