North Jersey Astronomical Group
Welcome to the North Jersey Astronomical Group's web page. The NJAG is an astronomy club of almost 100 stargazers interested in all aspects of the night sky.
Since 1981, the NJAG has sponsored many activities for the public in Northern New Jersey, including weekly Telescope Nights and a monthly lecture series in the spring and fall plus special events. Tens of thousands of people have discovered the wonders of the Universe through our telescopes!
For information on joining our club - please click on "Join NJAG" on the menu above.
The NJAG is a member of the
United Astronomy Clubs of New Jersey (UACNJ)
...and the International Dark Sky Association (IDA).
Please note that classes and events at Montclair State have been cancelled through the end of the semester. As a result our weekly Telescope Nights are currently on hold. Our monthly club meetings are now taking place online as noted in the events calendar on this page. Telescope Nights will hopefully resume in the near future as the situation allows. Updates will be posted here and on our Facebook page.
