| Astronomy Ireland members all
over Ireland will be setting up their telescopes and inviting the general
public to come along and look at the total eclipse of the moon on the
4th of May. Bring along
a few euros to make a small donation and buy a copy of the club's magazine
"Astronomy & Space". Let's hope skies will be clear, but each event will run regardless of weather so go along for a chat and to pick up a copy of Ireland's only full colour astronomy magazine. If you would like to run an eclipse watch in your area please contact tom@astronomy.ie |
