@mjuric @uwastronomy For a long time the largest telescope in the world was in Ireland, known as the 'Emerald Isle' probably because it rains so much. Furthermore, the telescope was at Birr castle, one of the cloudier places in Ireland

@DJSnM @uwastronomy The 'Emerald City' approves & sends its regards.

@mjuric @uwastronomy I’m sure your students will compensate for all the lost field trips in spring and summer time :)
