Event Name:  Colourful Space
Event Description:  All of Ireland was transfixed by the Aurora Borealis in mid-May. We thought you'd appreciate a better understanding of this phenomenon to better engage your students. That's inspired us to take a deep dive into the role colour plays in astronomy. Colour can tell us the elemental make-up of deep sky objects, it can tell us how fast objects are approaching or moving away from us, and it can even tell us what the atmospheres of distant exoplanets are like. To help us better understand the role colour plays in astronomy our Education Officer Frances McCarthy was joined by very special guest Prof Jayanne English.
