Starting Sunday, 31st May, Craft Night will return to Tog. From 6.30 pm to 8.30 pm every second Sunday, drop by and join in, whether you make the yarn itself (we love spinners!) or noodle about with e-textiles and blinky quilts. If you haven’t been to Craft Night before, it’s mainly people working on portable crafts like yarn-based and textile projects, but feel free to bring your current WIP (Work In Progress). We’ll take over the common area with crafting and conversation. We might even try to bring a group Craft Night project to Dublin Maker (it’s been a while!). You’ll find the nights on our calendar , so you don’t need to remember which every other Sunday it is. Newcomers to Tog are more than welcome to join us. See you there!

The 44th Annual International Space Development Conference is in McLean, VA, June 4-7, 2026 The National Space Society is pleased to announce Keith Cowing as a guest and honoree at its 44th annual International Space Development Conference ® (ISDC ® ) in McLean, VA, on June 4-7, 2026. Cowing will receive the NSS’s Space Pioneer Award for excellence in mass media. “We are delighted to honor Keith Cowing for a decades-long career of deeply insightful and informative daily analysis of space programs worldwide, and for his unwavering support for the advancement of space science, in particular astrobiology and space life sciences,” said Dr. Pascal Lee, co-chair of ISDC 2026. Cowing is the editor of NASAWatch.com, a news source and watchdog for U.S. space efforts, and Astrobiology.com. He is a former NASA space biologist and International Space Station payload manager, and more recently a sought-out space commentator on national and global media. Cowing is a Fellow of the Explorers Club; has trained at NASTAR and ZeroG; was co-lead of the ISEE-3 Reboot and Lunar Orbiter Image Recovery projects; and organized and edited the proceedings of the NASA Risk and Exploration Symposium. In other space-related activities, Cowing is a three-time veteran of the Haughton-Mars Project on Devon Island and served a stint at Everest base camp supporting the first astronaut ascent. He was a guest editor of three editions of Ad Astra magazine and co-wrote “New Moon Rising” with former Ad Astra editor Frank Sietzen. “I am truly honored to receive this award from the NSS given its long history of tirelessly advocating for humanity to become a spacefaring species,” Cowing said. “After 30 years of editing NASAWatch, my attention will now pivot toward my other website, Astrobiology.com, and the book I am writing on astrobiology expeditions.” In addition to accepting his Space Pioneer Award, Cowing will appear in the Mars sessions at the ISDC.
