Friday, 20th October 2017 @ 19:00 - 21:00 BST

The October 2017 (William Lassell Memorial Lecture) monthly meeting of Liverpool Astronomical Society for the 2017 – 2018 (136th) session will be held on Friday, October 20th from 19:00 to 21:30.


Our guest speaker this month is Mr. Paul L Money FRAS FBIS, whose lecture is entitled:

“Triumphs of Voyager [part 1]: Journey to Jupiter, Splendours of Saturn”

This is a two-part lecture, with the second part taking place at our April 2018 meeting.
