Galilean Nights October Global Star Party Intro

P.S. to the above post.
Quite a few of our members are attending Astronomy Night Classes at WIT on Thursday nights, so we will take a few scopes with us on Thursday 22nd and, weather permitting, hold an informal 'Galilean Nights' event at 9.30pm after the class finishes.

Thanks Dave/Deirdre,
We'll be documenting this one alot better then last time, I suppoose practice makes perfect.

DEISE Astronomy Society's planned events are now registered .

Good luck to all, fingers crossed for clear skies.

OK now all bar one event is now visible on the Galilean Nights website at the moment.

Weather is looking hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ish maybe ish Ireland is such a gamble for pre planned public events. Lets keep a tight eye on the forecast and hope for the best.

If anyone knows of events that are happening and not registered let me know asap. Thanks.
Oh and don't forget to spend some money on info leaflets about your club or ink to print them or some outreach material and send me the receipts.
