The Royal Astronomical Society is proud to present the National Astronomy Meeting, to be held at Lancaster University in July 2019.
NAM2019 will bring together hundreds of delegates from the UK astronomy community and will feature a wide-ranging scientific programme in parallel with exciting outreach and cultural events.
Keep an eye on this website, our Twitter and Instagram feeds, and our emails for more details.

NAM2019 is officially over! We hope you had an enjoyable meeting filled with science, networking and fun!
As you might expect a lot of effort goes into organising a NAM, and we simply couldn't have done it without the support of Lancaster University and the RAS. But perhaps the biggest shout-out goes to our superb student #NAMbassadors - you were outstanding.
One last favour - registered delegates will have recieved an email inviting them to complete a survey about their experience at NAM2019. We really want to know what went well, what you enjoyed, and what wasn’t so good about NAM2019. Your responses will be used to help us improve future NAM conferences and demonstrate the impact of our areas of science to the wider UK scientific community.
We look forward to seeing you all again in Bath for NAM2020 - where we'll be looking far more relaxed!
