Eclipse26 at DIAS Dunsink Observatory

SOLD OUT!

Join us at Dunsink Observatory for a night-long celebration of the solar eclipse on the 12th August. Throughout the night we’ll have talks, conversation, demonstrations and, weather permitting, some solar viewing — all in the historic surroundings of Dunsink Observatory. Meet the scientists at the Dublin Institute of Advanced Studies (DIAS) who are expanding our understanding of the universe, the Dunsink team who care for the history and future of the observatory, and the community of astronomers and space fans who help make Dunsink one of the most important sites for space exploration in Ireland.

All attendees will be provided with eclipse glasses to safely view the eclipse and weather permitting we will also have solar telescopes available for use.

Advanced booking is required through Eventbrite.
