    Does anyone know what time this is on tonight? Astronomy Ireland in the Phoenix Park with a telescope pointed at mars, but their website doesn't say when they'll be there.

    Looks pretty cloudy though.

    Eh? Mars is ever so slightly closer than Alpha Centauri.

    I knew I should have googled it instead of listening to the news.

    I was hoping to go tonight. NOt sure of the time either.

    Does it basically involve me turning up to the phoenix park and having a look through a massive telescope? I don't have to know anything about astronomy, do i?

    8pm tonight, was going to the Dundalk watch but it's just all clouds and looks as if there will be no breaks.
