SUMMARY:Galway Science and Technology Exhibition 2025
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nIt is that time of year again! The Galway Science and Technology Exhibition 2025 takes place in the University of Galway on Sunday November 10th. The Galway Astronomy Club will be there again with our usual stand to share the wonders of astronomy with the public. \nThis is a really fun event and is such a rewarding experience to share the wonders of the universe with the inquisitive young and not so young! We have had fantastic days at this exhibition in the past and are really looking forward to taking part again. \nStop by and say hello if you are at the exhibition\, and if you would like to volunteer an hour or so to help out\, please contact the club\, you would be very welcome. \n  \nExhibition details can be found here: https://galwayscience.ie/

SUMMARY:GAC November Meeting with Prof Emeritus Andrew Shearer (University of Galway)
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n\nGalway Astronomy Club are pleased to announce details of our November club meeting\, which will take place at 7.30 pm on Monday the 10th November in the Ardilaun Hotel\, Taylors Hill\, Galway.\n  \n  \nTalk: ‘What we still don’t know : what should we know in 20 years’ time’ \nAstrophysics and cosmology is at a turning point with a number of problems which hopefully will be addressed in the next 20 years. These problems include big questions. What is the nature of dark energy and dark matter? What does the Hubble tension tell us? Is there life outside the Earth: In our solar system? Around other stars? For my own research questions include what causes fast radio bursts? Will we ever develop a full understanding about how pulsars work? \nThis talk will address these problems firstly by laying out what we don’t know and what observations have taken place over the last 20 years to address them. The talk will then go onto look at the new observatories\, instruments and space missions designed to address them. \n  \nSpeaker: Prof Emeritus Andrew Shearer (U of G) \nProfessor Emeritus Andrew Shearer’s main interest is in studies of objects which change on short timescales – such as pulsars. He has made observations with most of the world’s major observatories. With others at NUIG he has developed instrumentation\, GASP\,  to study the optical polarisation from pulsars. For over twenty years Andy Shearer has been involved in a number of public engagement and outreach events. The main thrust of his work has been to bring astronomy (and Physics) to a much wider community. \n  \nAll are welcome and we look forward to your company.
