This month we explore the inner planets of the Solar System from Mercury to Mars. These are the rocky planets which are similar to the Earth in composition. We also look at the new class of Dwarf planets which include Pluto, Ceres and Eris.

You will be asked to leave the lecture theatre immediately after, so that the seats can be cleaned for the ASSA General Meeting that starts at 8pm. You will need to obtain a separate ticket to attend the General Meeting.
