I joined GAS in the middle of the pandemic 2020 after receiving a telescope as a gift and needing some help in setting it up. Everyone has been so helpful and give their time up so freely, it has been a joy to be part\n of them!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

“I enjoy the wide variety of the lectures, especially those on historical topics, and find the talks accessible to a lay person (though I’m sometimes stretched by the maths\/science). Pre-Covid I was an occasional guest\n to live meetings, I joined during the pandemic and will maintain my membership – it’s good value and outreach sessions are great fun.”<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
