International Observe the Moon Night
5th October in AI Headquarters
in association with NASA at 7PM
This International event has been held since 2010. It is co-ordinated by the Events Outreach Coordinator Staci Tiedeken at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Centre and is a celebration of all things lunar.
WOW !!! Note Saturn will be extremely close to the Moon that night. See the diagram on page 26 of our October magazine, available by post in the 32 counties from http://www.astronomy.ie/magazine
Come along and experience looking at the moon through our telescopes.
The event will will be held at our Headquarters in Blanchardstown (just off the M50) For map and directions visit: www.astronomy.ie/map
The event is suitable for all ages, and we encourage families, children and adults to come along.
****SCOUT/SCHOOL GROUPS****
While we encourage scout and school groups to come along please call ahead in order to confirm if there are any prior groups arranged to come along. This makes it easier for our volunteers to enable all groups to view these amazing sights.
