Tweeddale Astronomical Society (TAS or 'TweedAstroS') is a newly formed group based in Peebles in the Scottish Borders. Our aim is to encourage anyone with an interest in the night sky, space exploration or just anything astronomical to get together and share their enthusiasm for the subject. We usually hold our main monthly meeting on the 3rd Tuesday of the month at a venue in or around the Peebl
es area (check the event notices for details). These meetings run from 7.30pm until 9.00pm (or a bit later if it's clear). We also hold member viewing meetings, (at short notice because of our glorious weather.. ) at The Osprey Centre, Kailzie Gardens, Peebles EH45 9HT, using a whatsapp group to arrange and also pre arranged public viewings where folk can get help using their telescopes and we can view the sky whenever it works out weatherwise. So come along if you're in the Tweeddale area or even further afield. there's no requirement to have a telescope or any prior knowledge of astronomy, just an interest in the sky. Probably best if you bring a warm coat, hat and gloves in case we're outside for a while though! We look forward to seeing you there!
