I'm giving free Public Lectures at the Royal Astronomical Society (Burlingon House, Piccadilly) Tues 12 May 1300 and repeated at 1800. The planet Mercury, newly revealed. Mercury is not the Moon, but the two bodies have several aspects in common. See here

Hello Dave, you forgot to mention your new book 'Planet Mercury, From Pale Pink Dot to Dynamic World' (of which I own a copy and I can confirm its rather interesting)

Hello David, great to see you on here. I am an ex OU The Planets student.

... and look where that Open University course took you!

Dave, would an online version of Moon Trumps be possible please for this forum?

All: Here's a fun link to Moon Trumps, a game designed to test your knowledge of the many moons of the solar system, by Professor David. A. Rothery: www2.open.ac.uk/openlearn/futurelearn/mo...5/trumps/trumps.html
