Overview

Twenty years ago, Pluto was reclassified as a “dwarf planet” as our understanding of the distant reaches of our Solar System expanded. We’ve since discovered that Pluto is just one of thousands of icy bodies inhabiting this twilight region at the system’s edge. Yet mysteries remain. Could a ninth planet be hiding in the darkness, as some suggest? 

Following Dr John Mason’s fascinating talk, enjoy a three-course dinner in the restaurant before stepping outside for after-dinner stargazing with telescopes. A captivating evening from start to finish.
