How are you?

What time will gates be open on Saturday?

Peter

From around 9:30am Peter, will we see you there?

Seanie.

P.S. Annaharvey is always open, the registration desk for Cosmos will be manned from 9:30am!

I certainly am planing to be Seanie!

I hope to bring my middle child with me, she has at least some interest in Astronomy, Science and Engineering.

It didn't work out for us last year date/time wise.
But I have a pass from my wife this year

Will be good to meet some fellow enthusiasts!

Peter

A big thanks to all those who made it to COSMOS 2011 this year.
I hope you all enjoyed the event.
Massive thanks to all the speakers for the time and effort they put in to preparing their talk.
Thanks also to all the MAC committee for the work they put to to make the event happen.
Finaly, many thanks to everyone at Annaharvey Farm for looking after us so well again this year.
We hope you all enjoyed the event and we hope to see you back again next year at COSMOS 2012 - 13th to 15th April 2012.

For those who missed the rocket launches (kindly carried out by Eric Stenzel), below are some video clips from my phone.
If any of you have any other videos or pictures of the rocket launches, or any part of the weekend, please feel free to share.

It was a great weekend! I'm uploading a few videos to YouTube but it's gonna take a while, they're very big!

A big thanks also to those who kindly donated prizes to the raffle:

Dezynamite, McKenna Computers and Anstee Handcrafts, all in Tullamore and to the Vodafone shop in Golden Island in Athlone.

Photos etc will be going in to a new online gallery on the MAC homepage very soon, we'll let you know when.

Seanie.

nice clips Michael : cheer: ... I didn't have the sound on the PC watching them but did anyone say, "Fetch doggie"?

thanks everyone for a great day of talks yesterday and the quiz too!

see you soon,

John

Thanks to everyone for a brilliant weekend - I really enjoyed the talks and the great chats with everyone. Launching the rocket was really fun & a bit scary but god it was so exciting! And of course, I managed to bagsie the biggest rocket....
Thanks again,
Bernie
