Invitation to Dunsink Observatory to IFAS clubs was created by DeirdreKelleghan
www.dias.ie/lang/en/cosmic/astro/dunsink.html

I would like to invite all IFAS club reps and members to
come along to Dunsink Observatory on Saturday February 28th.

Dunsink Observatory is a great venue, with a bright future.
Come along and see what it is like, come along and we can all
have a talk about how amateur astronomy clubs in this country
can perhaps get involved with Dunsink.

Refreshments will be provided

Time to be confirmed ,details later, afternoon looks the best for most.

Let me have your thoughts on it.

Hi Deirdre,
If the weather is good is there any chance of using the scopes there or a tour?

Hi guys and girls, we will kick off at 4pm to give everyone time to
get up from the west or wherever you are coming from.
We are putting a bunch of things together at the moment and will
let you know how it will run out on the day soon.

Yes to bringing telescopes if the weather plays along.

Dee,

Many thanks to yourself and DIAS for this generous invite.

I have spoken to our club members in MAC about it and we are looking forward to this event.

It is a great opportunity to see Ireland's oldest scientific institution and I would encourage everyone here to take advantage of this very generous invite.

I hope to see you all there.

Regards & Thanks,

Michael.

Hi everyone , now DIAS have kindly set up a talk and a workshop in
Dunsink for your pleasure.


Bring your laptops
Bring your telescopes if you like.
Bring your cameras :)

The talk will be given by a DIAS scientist and will be on
the subjects of radio and optical astronomy.

The workshop will be on a new scientific database on the
Jetset Project. www.jetsets.org/home.html

A bit to eat , a cup of tea, and with a bit of luck a spot
of observing will end the afternoon/evening session.

Give me some idea of how many will come along to this ,thanks
