HELENSBURGH ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY
A CHARITY REGISTERED IN SCOTLAND -NO. SC037113
welcome
Hello and welcome to our website. We are a relatively new group having been formed only in 2002. However we would like to think that our enthusiasm is infectious, so why don't you have a browse through this site or even better come along and pay us a visit on one of our Club nights!

We have access to Glasgow University's 16" Meade telescope mostly twice per month. One of these meetings is held jointly with the Astronomical Society of Glasgow. This a new telescope which has been installed recently. Details of where we hold our meetings can be obtained from the Chairman by email or by clickng here.

If you are interested in joining then please have a look at Membership details. If you just want to come along and see what it is all about then you can attend your first meeting free and join thereafter.

Please use the Menu on the left to navigate this site. To find out our current programme please go to This Year. I hope you find the links useful and will return here.
On 18 January 2006 the Society attained Charity status in Scotland; the Society is so registered under No. SC037113.
