Public Speaker Series

The Westport Astronomical Society’s Science Lecture Series features experts at the top of their fields. Located in a vibrant spot between New York City, Yale, and MIT, we can draw from a deep well of knowledge with speakers coming from the Hayden Planetarium, The American Museum of Natural History, Yale, NYU, UConn, MIT, Wesleyan, and Columbia, with educators from all over the globe who enrich our community with cutting-edge discussions on cosmology, physics, and astronomy. And since adding Zoom during the pandemic, we now cast an even wider net of the best speakers on Earth.

These public lectures are generally available for attendance both onsite and online as a Webinar on Zoom and our YouTube channel. Please check the details of upcoming lectures to see whether attendance will be online only.
