Astronomy Trade Fair to Debut at Ham Radio Friedrichshafen

Suppose your plans next year include attending Ham Radio Friedrichshafen in Germany. In that case, you may want to set aside a day to consider some sky-gazing that has long been a companion to amateur radio. Astro, an astronomy trade fair, is making its premiere next year. The exhibition centre that will be home to the large ham radio trade fair from 26th June 2026 through to the 28th June 2026 will also be welcoming amateur astronomers and technology hobbyists on June 27th. Space is being set aside in Hall B1 for a trade fair focusing on astronomy, astrophotography and related activities, giving hams and others many more worlds to explore.
