In 1950, Prof Leo W. Pollak, Director of the School of Cosmic Physics gave a public lecture in UCD, entitled ‘Is the Earth Getting Warmer?’ He outlined early evidence of a changing climate, from the effects of warming latitudes on fish migration, to glacier decay, and noted the growing scientific consensus that gloabl warming was underway. Prof.Pollak even suggested that Irish coastal towns such as Glengariff in West Cork, or Skerries in Dublin might one day replace the seaside resorts of Southern France!

The ADH Telescope operated in South Africa until 1980. Though the working life of the ADH telescope is now over, its memory remains. It made significant contributions to Southern Hemisphere astronomy, in particular to studies of the Magenellic Clouds, Galactic Structure and southern Milky Way. Today original pieces of the telescope, as well as original photographic plates are on display at DIAS Dunsink Observatory.
