Dear Friends of Astronomy Ireland,
We forgot to tell you that Dan Parry will be Pat
Kenny's guest on RTE Radio 1 on Thursday morning (July 23) to promote his book
MOONSHOT that was screened worldwide last Monday, including RTE but also in
The White House we hear !
Those of you in Dublin I hope to meet at Dan's talk
and book signing later that night. Everyone else, I hope you will order
the DVD we are making of his talk.
And buy his book ! If you've listened to Dan
on any of the interviews he has done for us (see link above) you'll know he has
a huge knowledge of Apollo and knows the moonwalkers personally.
I must say it's been fantastic to see the media
frenzy we've had for the Apollo 40th anniversary and the ISS+Shuttle flying
over. We've never seen anything like it before.
We hope to keep this level of activity going for
the rest of International Year of Astronomy, and beyond !
Haven't we been bringing in a marvellous array of
speakers from abroad so far this year? I hope you will support and come to
the Apollo Lecture or watch it on DVD.

P.S. And a big thank you to The Lombard who
have been providing us with food for our social reception after each A.I.
Meeting this year. It's great to meet you all afterwards and chat with our
speakers. See you there!
