Armagh Observatory and Planetarium hosts “Armagh StarTracker Online”, a star show where we take you on a tour of the night sky using a virtual planetarium followed by live viewing the stars using telescopes in the Canary Islands. We will be using Slooh’s online robotic telescopes to view the celestial objects. There will be a chance throughout the sessions to ask questions to the Director of Armagh Observatory and Planetarium, Professor Michael Burton.

Each session will focus on different objects and stars that are visible in the night sky.

Optionally, you may also join our Astronomy Club, the Armagh Sky Sweepers, by registering for a yearly membership.  This will give you access to Slooh’s telescopes in the Canary Islands and Chile, where you can conduct your own quests to explore the night sky. There will be a link to join Slooh in your registration email.
