About Me
Astronomy Club of Kosovo or (Klubi i Astronomëve Amator të Kosovës in Albanian), is an NGO - (Non Governmental Organization), as well the first science activity and the highest distribution of astronomy throughout Albanian areas with the aim of spreading the knowledge of Science & Astronomy as well the phenomena or scientific secrets of the cosmos. ACK, it aims to build, promote, popularize and bring the knowledge of science and astronomy in the Republic of Kosovo and the region. Founded on March 20, 2014 by a group of passionate students who love astronomy and aim towards bringing the science of astronomy and its beauty closer to the people of Kosovo, and make it a part of culture and education of the youth.
As a growing club we have new members, young and old, who are actively interested in astronomy and want to know more about how to engage with fellow astronomy lovers. Our NGO has been registered in late 2014, since we have seen interest towards astronomy and realized that we need to grow our community and find ways to support our activities.
The art of astronomy is not a very well-known activity in Kosovo, mostly as a result of the lack of information and equipment. We want to create a space where people who are interested can at least get the information they require about astronomy, and in case they want to be more serious with our club then we will involve them in our programs and activities. Our aim is to use the telescopes and whichever tools are at our disposal to help grow their love of astronomy through our events. We also want to create the opportunity for professors interested in practical lessons of astronomy to use our equipment and premises and continue training professors in the art of astronomy so they can bring a more practical experience of their subjects to their students.
