Welcome to West Yorkshire Astronomical Society

RSPB Fairburn Ings Event

On the 25th September WYAS will be joining forces with Leeds AS, as we did last year, at the RSPB Centre, Fairburn Ings near Castleford. There will be short talks on bats and astronomy followed by a Bat-Watch from the hides and observing the night sky with telescopes. This was very popular last year with standing room only in the Centre for the talks. Last year we had clear skies so let's hope for the same this year.
