Armagh Observatory, 16 January 2002: . Apostolos Christou and John McFarland have made the first detection, from anywhere in Ireland, of the shadow cast by a star of an asteroid as it passed over Armagh. Such events, known as asteroidal occultations, allow a precise fix to be made on the asteroid's position in space, and also an estimate of its size and shape. ... Asteroids are mostly small, rocky objects, lying hundreds of millions of miles from the Earth between Mars and Jupiter. ...
