Astronomical Society of Northern New England

About Us

ASNNE- Promoting public awareness of Astronomy since 1982.

Located in Kennebunk, Maine, the Astronomical Society of Northern New England (ASNNE) is an all-volunteer non-profit educational organization.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced amateur astronomer, enjoyment and challenges await you as a member of ASNNE. Whether it is just enjoying the views at the eyepiece or learning how to operate the observatory telescopes.
Our activites include teaching the basics of recognizing the constellations, observing the stars and planets at Talmage Observatory at Starfield, presenting monthly discussions on a wide variety of astronomy related topics, and organizing outings to special events. We generally do not meet at the observatory during the winter months, but contact us to see availability.
