Just in case you were wondering 👩🚀👨🚀🔭 The Irish For: An astronaut is a star-sailor, a comet is a paintbrush star jrnl.ie/4731061
📺 Make sure you tune in to @RTEOne tonight at 6:30 PM to catch @petertgallagher, head of Astronomy and Astrophysics, who will be on the special live programme 50 Years: To the Moon and Back, hosted by @lawlor_aine, to mark #Apollo50 ! #DIASdiscovers
Well done to all! #DIASdiscovers twitter.com/petertgallaghe…
Tickets at the ready! 🎟️ @DIASDunsink @DIASAstronomy @festofcuriosity #DIASdiscovers #curiousdublin
Great start to @festofcuriosity here @DIASDunsink We look forward to welcoming all our visitors this evening #curiousdublin #DIASdiscovers
🔭 We'll see all you astronomers (and hopefully some stars too🤞) tonight @DIASDunsink for our booked out @festofcuriosity Summer Night Stargazing event! If you missed out on tickets, keep an eye out for next year and get in early!🌌 #curiousdublin #DIASdiscovers
🌌 The future of space research at DIAS includes high levels of international collaboration on 3 major international satellite missions launching in 2020, 2021, and 2028! 🛰️ @esa Solar Orbiter 🛰️ @esa, @NASA, @csa_asc @NASAWebb 🛰️ @esa ARIEL #DIASdiscovers #JWST #Space
As we mark #Apollo50, we also celebrate our own 50th anniversary as space research pioneers! We think there will be even more to celebrate over the next 50 as DIAS continues to push the boundaries of space research and exploration! #DIASDiscovers #SpaceResearch

☀️DIAS researchers, in collaboration with @tcddublin and @Obs_Paris, have investigated the behaviour of plasma in our sun’s atmosphere. One day, these findings on the nature of our cosmos may help develop safer and more efficient nuclear power. ⚡️ #DIASDiscovers
DIAS Professor Alex Thompson worked with Prof O'Sullivan on further analysis of the Apollo 16 data, and the two conducted further pioneering research on cosmic rays, including the Ultra Heavy Cosmic Ray experiment during the Shuttle missions
50 years ago, Neil Armstrong took “one small step for man...” In 2001, DIAS researchers-or at least their dummy-took another small step for man…measuring the effects of cosmic radiation on the human body in Ireland's first experiment on the @Space_Station! #DIASDiscovers #iss
In 1972, the first Irish space experiment, designed in part by DIAS Professor Denis O’Sullivan, was conducted on the Apollo 16 mission to measure cosmic rays! The technicians featured this week were instrumental in analyzing the data. ☄️ #DIASDiscovers #Apollo #WomenInSTEM
The fire unfortunately destroyed this connection between DIAS and the #Apollo programme, but the cosmic ray detector from Apollo 16--the first Irish space experiment--is still intact and also in the National Museum! twitter.com/NMIreland/stat…
