Armagh Planetarium Trip This Saturday

 

Astronomy Ireland’s extremely popular annual day trip to Armagh Planetarium (one of the best in the world!) takes place this Saturday, November 26th.

 

We will see their new show Ice Worlds which will explore the colder planets and moons of our Solar System, including Earth, Mars, and Titan! Exclusively for us, a Guide to the Night Sky will be shown so we can find out what to see in the night sky at this time of year, as well as learning how to find our way around the constellations.

 

Watch a trailer of Ice Worlds on our website HERE.

 

After the Planetarium show, David Moore will bring us on a fascinating tour through the famous Astropark, where you will begin to get a sense of just how big the Universe really is, and of the Human Orrery, where you can take part in simulating the motion of the planets using your own body!
