Dark Sky Ireland has an online form for recording Stars \/ Meteors and Satellites so that you can make your observations count as Citizen Science. Your data helps us identify areas of Light Pollution, Satellite tracking activity for a live Science project and the number of visible meteors sighted around the island of Ireland.<br>To kick start the Citizen Science campaign, we have a short webinar from Brendan Owens, Expert astronomer and Public Engagement Manager at the Institute of Physics. Brendan Owens is a passionate science communicator with a keen interest in and knowledge of astronomy and physics. He will provide some handy tips and tools to help you navigate your way in the sky and where to log your observations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this information, you&#8217;ll be ready to head outside on a clear dark night and start recording what you see. This is an activity for all the family and one you can do any night during Heritage Week or into the future.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZ0lfuyprTsoGNwVoj-FDcg05FXuVWI3yoOP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SIGN UP HERE<\/a><br>________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Saturday 13th August &#8211; 9.30pm<br>DARK SKY WALK &#8211; #Half the Park is After Dark!<\/strong><br>Location &#8211; Letterkeen Bothy, Mayo Dark Sky Park\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayodarkskypark.ie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.MayoDarkSkyPark.ie<\/a><br>Following Brendan&#8217;s webinar, we will be leading a guided walk in Mayo\u00a0Dark Sky Park.
