Aurora Trip Membership DVD Shop Astronomy Summer School Begins This Evening Our brand new Astronomy Summer School begins this evening, Wednesday, July 18th, in Trinity College Dublin, and was developed by Astronomy Ireland to give newcomers to astronomy a good grounding in observational astronomy and how to find one's way around the night sky. Students will learn about the constellations, the Moon and the Sun, the history of astronomy, how telescopes work, and what to see in the night sky. An Introduction to Astronomy is ideal for those who want to get more out of their stargazing sessions, how telescopes can be used, and where to find celestial objects in the sky, without being going into the more complex details of astrophysics and cosmology. The Astronomy Ireland Summer School will commence this evening and run each Wednesday for four weeks. There are still places available for last minute enrolments, and the fee is only €140 for non-members and €100 for members (group rates can be arranged).
