About The Event
Out in the cold reaches of the solar system lives Pluto and it's friends. These are other large bodies, moons, comets and asteroids.
This month we'll learn more about some of these objects and the missions that have been sent out to give us some amazing images.
As usual we will have a series of short talks, games and demos, followed by some refreshments. Remember to be there on time if you want to be in with a chance of winning one of the monthly prizes.
