Welcome to the Basingstoke Astronomical Society Expedition Group

Activities, visits, trips, conferences or equipment reviews by members of the group will appear on this site.

If you are interested in astronomy and travel then this is the society for you. Most of our members belong to other societies too, but here at the BAS Expedition Group we get to travel and perform astronomy related activities away from home. We carry out trips here in the UK to observatories as well as trips abroad such as to the Canary Islands, in the future Southern France, Chile in South America and Namibia in Africa.

As a friendly group of astronomers covering a wide range of ages we aim to really experience astronomy to its fullest through travel, friendship and experience.
