Fab night at the public night thanks to Sadhbh and the team. Great talk and then a bit of a history lesson about the telescope.

A place that everyone should go at least once in life! I went on one of those open to the public visitor days and it was super interesting. Just outside they set up a 'small' telescope through where we could see Jupiter and it's four bigger moons which was awesome. The house has many rooms with photo exhibition, older equipment and some history around different things like an astronomical museum. In the conference room they made a presentation talking about different subjects through a massive projector screen and it was also open for questions. At the end we were all taken to have a look at the moon through the giant and older telescope (12" refractor, the Grubb) they have in the Dunsink observatory outside and everyone had a go at it!! It's family friendly, lot of kids and it's literally a good gig for everyone, even go alone as I did myself or with friends. Highly recommend, A+
