Around 500 astronomers and space scientists will gather at Lancaster University, from 30 June – 4 July, for the Royal Astronomical Society National Astronomy Meeting 2019 (NAM 2019). The conference is the largest annual astronomy and space science event in the UK and will see leading scientists from the UK and around the world present the latest cutting-edge research.

NAM 2019 incorporates the RAS National Astronomy Meeting (NAM), and includes the annual meetings of the UK Solar Physics (UKSP) and Magnetosphere Ionosphere Solar-Terrestrial (MIST) groups. The conference is principally sponsored by the Royal Astronomical Society (RAS), the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and Lancaster University.

Sessions at NAM 2019 will cover a diverse range of topics in 34 parallel sessions, including galaxies, the history and fate of the Universe, future instruments and space probes, and the impact of the Sun on the Earth.

Alongside the formal meeting will be a public lecture by Professor Jocelyn Bell Burnell, who will speak about the 1919 expeditions to Principe and Sobral to verify Einstein’s general theory of relativity.

Meeting arrangements and a full and up to date schedule of the scientific programme can be found on the official website https://nam2019.org and via the conference Twitter account https://twitter.com/rasnam2019

Details of media releases, and registration information, are on our dedicated conference media page at https://nam2019.org/press-releases

Media representatives are cordially invited to attend the meeting and can register at no cost. Press room facilities will be available for the duration of the conference – from 0900 BST on Monday 1 July to 1500 BST on Thursday 4 July. A series of releases, issued under embargo, will cover key scientific results presented at the meeting.

For free registration, and to obtain access to embargoed releases via the (password-protected) media site, please contact a member of the press team (see below).
