Astronomy Ireland

Astronomy Ireland is an astronomy association based in Ireland (including the Republic and Northern Ireland). It is a non-profit educational organisation founded by David Moore.
History.
Astronomy Ireland (AI) was founded in Dublin in 1990 by David Moore and others following a split from the Irish Astronomical Society.
Publications and media.
Members are kept up-to-date by e-mail newsletters and text messages. A premium rate telephone news service alerts Irish and British astronomers to celestial events, ranging from flyovers of the International Space Station to meteor showers.
Astronomy Ireland produces a monthly magazine called "Astronomy Ireland" which is aimed mainly at amateur astronomers.
A weekly radio programme, "AIRS" (Astronomy Ireland Radio Show), is broadcast every Tuesday on FM radio and on the Internet. Previous shows are available from the MP3 archive on the club's website, along with recordings of other radio programmes.
Astronomy Shop.
A private venture called the Astronomy Shop was owned and managed by the company's director, David Moore. This shop was liquidated in 2013. The company "Astronomy & Space Ltd." was dissolved in 2015.
