The Webb Deep-Sky Society has a wide range of publications on offer.
Our latest publication is the Atlas of Open Star Clusters for which we have a PDF sample of the content for you to download.
The date has been set for Saturday the 15th of June 2019 at our normal venue: the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge. There's no need to book in advance. Member or not, you're all welcome to turn up on the day.
The planning is underway and there'll be more to come, so keep an eye on the Annual Meeting 2019 page.
You can now join the Webb Deep-Sky Society online using PayPal. Options include Paper and PDF versions of the Deep-Sky Observer journal, or PDF alone for a reduced price.
Perhaps you'd like to join our groups.io mailing group? Access is limited to members, but you're all welcome.

Clear and dark skies are needed for Owen's challenge this month. A faint group of galaxies in a single high power field of view. A physical group or not?
Wolfgang Steinicke would appreciate your observations of NGC 6781 for his Object of the Season column in the Deep-Sky Observer.
Some colourful pairs and perhaps even a variable one? Whatever the case two interesting multiple stars provide a range of challenges this month from Bob.
