Subject: Eclipse on Monday 3rd, Major Lecture
Hi all,
1. Only about 0.2% of you noticed my deliberate mistake regarding the
eclipse: October 3rd is of course a Monday, not Tuesday! (It was correct in the
attached article, so that was OK)
2. John Flannery asked me to send out these details:
"Gonzaga College, Ranelagh, Dublin and the South Dublin Astronomical Society
are delighted to announce that the well known and eminent Br Guy
Consolmagno, SJ will give their next talk on Thursday, October 6th in Gonzaga College.
Guy is speaking at the Whirlpool Star Party in Birr, Co. Offaly which begins
on Friday, October 7th after our meeting (see go.to/sac) and Guy has kindly
consented to come a day early and give a talk, entitled
"Why does the Pope have an Astronomer?".
Guy is co-author of "Turn Left at Orion" with Dan Davis, there is an
excellent interview with both himself and Dan Davis in this month's Arcturus. This
can be found at
http://www.irishastronomy.org/user_resources/files/1124538888-arc_sept_05.pdf
They expect a great demand for places, which are limited. To confirm
attendance please mail your request, stating the number of places you require,
to infosouthdublinastronomy.org
Admission is FREE and the venue is Gonzaga College, Ranelagh, Dublin with the
meeting starting at 8pm on Thursday, October 6th.
A biography of Guy is on his website http://homepage.mac.com/brother_guy
Clear skies,
Terry Moseley
