Welcome to the Milton Keynes Astronomical Society [MKAS]
Our mission: To spread the interest and enjoyment of astronomy to people of all ages in and around Milton Keynes
We find that there is nothing better than to exchange practical experiences gained under our challenging skies. We like most things related to Astronomy and Space. We book speakers to come and enlighten us on their fields of expertise. We have social events throughout the year and love to talk about all things Astronomical
So, come along and have a chat at Rectory Cottages, Bletchley and we'll make out the case that MKAS is the right Society for you! MKAS recommends the wearing of masks inside the venue. Bring your own refreshments and leave contact details on register.
