The end of August saw hundreds gather in Co Wicklow with the society at their annual Star-B-Q event to see the sky through some of Ireland's biggest telescopes.<\/p>\n
From beginners to experts, a wide range of telescopes were set up to allow people to see the sights above - the club welcomed all levels of experience and allows anyone to get involved.<\/p>\n
The opportunity to use the large telescopes enabled incredible views. Editor ofAstronomy Ireland'smagazine David Moore said: \"These sights cannot be seen by the ordinary eye.\"<\/p>\n
This annual event is a great opportunity to put your astronomy telescope knowledge to the test after attending the classes. <\/p>\n
