The Insight Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2016 exhibition at the Royal Observatory Greenwich displays the spectacular winning images from this year’s competition in the Observatory’s Astronomy Centre. 

From distant galaxies to our very own Milky Way and neighbouring planets, the entries reflect our enduring fascination with the night sky. Images on display include the winners from the nine main categories, as well as two special prize winners.

Insight Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2016 is organised by the Royal Observatory Greenwich in association with Insight Investment and BBC Sky at Night Magazine.

Entry to the Astronomy Centre and to the exhibition is free of charge.
