Great article in today's @IrishTimes about the breakthrough in understanding #SolarStorms, that was made by DIAS in conjuction with @tcddublin and @helsinkiuni. Read it at bit.ly/2Nd86ne. #DIASdiscovers
If you missed @petertgallagher Head of @DIASAstronomy, on @drivetimerte yesterday talking about our recent breakthrough on #SolarStorms, you can listen back at: bit.ly/2Sd1Yfm #DIASdiscovers

#DidYouKnow The School of Cosmic Physics at DIAS carried out the first gravity survey of Ireland and through off-shore geophysical research enabled the extension of Ireland’s ocean territory by tenfold. #DIASdiscovers
A key priority of the @SCSLibrary is the provision of reliable editions of hitherto unpublished material and texts, previously accessible only to scholars consulting the manuscripts. Learn more about the @DIAS_ISOS project at isos.dias.ie #DIASdiscovers
. @ProfBrianCox & @robinince using coffee & cream to explain how we got from the Big Bang to the universe as we know it today. Fantastic show tonight in @3ArenaDublin - masterclass in communicating complex scientific concepts effectively
@UniversalQandA Given you’re in Dublin, any comments on the legacy / influence of Schrödinger, who lived here for many years & was the first Director of @StpDias?
. @ProfBrianCox showing an image of the universe as it was 380,000 years after The Big Bang #Cosmology
“Your theory suggests there was a day without a yesterday” - Lemaître’s comment to Einstein on the Theory of Relativity, as cited by @ProfBrianCox
“9000 people have come out on a Saturday night to chat about #Cosmology - that makes me feel good about the world” - @ProfBrianCox is pleased with the turnout for his Dublin show :)
We’re excited to be @3ArenaDublin tonight for @ProfBrianCox. We know he’s a big fan of #Schrödinger, first Director of @StpDias, so looking forward to seeing if he speaks of Schrödinger‘s time in Dublin...
.@DIASDunsink Observatory is used as an outreach centre, as accommodation for visitors and for hosting research workshops and meetings. Over 4,000 visitors a year come to events such as #Solarfest, @CultureNight, @ScienceWeek and Open Nights. Learn more: bit.ly/2SAAi8s
To keep up to date with all of our events, from open nights at @DIASDunsink, to fascinating lectures and seminars in our Burlington Road HQ, head to our calendar at: dias.ie/events/ #DIASdiscovers

Don’t forget about the next open night at @DIASDunsink on Wed 20th Feb at 7pm. Open to the public! To reserve your place go to bit.ly/2SWEgse. #DIASdiscovers
The Astronomy and Astrophysics Section of the School of Cosmic Physics researches the formation of stars and planets, the origins of the mysterious cosmic rays and much more. Find out about the work being done at dias.ie/cp-geophysics/… #DIASdiscovers
This #ValentinesDay we're showing our love for the @MarsRovers who turned 90 days into a 15-year exploration, providing ground-breaking discoveries and changing our understanding of Mars forever #ThanksOppy
