TELESCOPE LIBRARY



By vivek; Published 31 May 2011

 

Astronomy is a very interesting hobby and for the majority of us it is mostly observation based. People who have remained in the hobby for some time will tell you the importance of having a telescope and once you start ascending into Serious Observational Astronomy, a telescope becomes an indispensible tool.

 

BAS realizes the need for its members to have access good telescopes and thus introduced the concept of THE TELESCOPE LIBRARY. Under this facility members of the organization are permitted to borrow telescopes for their personal observations with a payment of a small maintenance fee. Grant or approval of usage is based on some simple criteria.
