With Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland School now on holidays, and GB schools back in the classroom mostly, so today's lesson won't be on at 11am today. We aim to upload a recording later in the week that you can use if you want to finish the set.

Tomorrow, Tues June 16th , we'll look at asteroids and comets. They have hit the earth, do hit the earth, and will hit the earth. Just a question of size. @fallingstarIfA searches whole sky night. While Hawaii observes, @AstroQUB at @QUBelfast scour the data in our daytime

Find a dwarf planet ! ATLAS Project @fallingstarIfA searches for killer asteroids. @AstroQUB we analyse data in day, while Hawaii observes at night. Many asteroids, supernovae every night. We use computers. But here is how Pluto was discovered - can you spot difference.
