Welcome to B.A.S.

Welcome to the home of Bedford Astronomical Society.

BAS, Bedford School and COVID-19/Coronavirus

As of January 2021, we remain in strict lockdown as we all do our part to fight this terrible pandemic. Therefore, we are still unable to host physical meetings, but are now able to start running speaker meetings via the Zoom platform. Please watch out for announcements regarding these.

 

Please stay safe during this challenging time, and we hope conditions return to something close to normal in the near future

 

With all best wishes from the BAS Committee
