  • Light Pollution and Its Impact the Ninth European Symposium for the Protection of the Night Sky
    Light Pollution and its Impact The Ninth European Symposium for the Protection of the Night Sky Dublin and Armagh, 2009 September 16–19 Sky glow over Dublin contrasted with a view of Jupiter and the Milky Way taken from a dark-sky site at Mount Parnon, Greece. Images courtesy Albert White and Frank Ryan Jnr. Acknowledgements The inspiration for this meeting arose several years ago when two of us (Mark Bailey [Armagh Observatory] and Albert White [Irish Light Pollution Awareness Campaign]) attended the very well organized Sixth European Symposium for the Protection of the Night Sky, held in Portsmouth, England, from 15–16 September 2006. We are very grateful for the support of the organizers of that meeting in the present arrangements, and for the provision of leaflets and other material supplied courtesy of the British Astronomical Association Campaign for Dark Skies (CfDS). We also thank the core institutional supporters of the meeting: the Republic of Ireland’s Dis- cover Science and Engineering programme; the Armagh Observatory and its core funding agency the Northern Ireland Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure (DCAL); the Royal Irish Academy (RIA), Dublin; and the Armagh and City District Council (ACDC). The important stimulus to astronomy education and public outreach activities provided by the United Nations International Year of Astronomy (IYA2009), particularly in the UK and Ireland, must also be acknowledged and recognized, and we particularly thank Mike Redfern, Robert Hill and Miruna Popescu (the all- Ireland IYA2009 – Ireland Secretariat) for their support and encouragement in the arrangements for this meeting from its earliest days.

  • GRAIL Reveals Secrets of the Lunar Interior
    GRAIL Reveals Secrets of the Lunar Interior — Dr. Patrick J. McGovern, Lunar and Planetary Institute A mini-flotilla of spacecraft sent to the Moon in the past few years by several nations has revealed much about the characteristics of the lunar surface via techniques such as imaging, spectroscopy, and laser ranging. While the achievements of these missions have been impressive, only GRAIL has seen deeply enough to reveal inner secrets that the Moon holds.
