The Solar System and Beyond: Exoplanets

Participants are introduced to the planets and dwarf planets of the Solar System through discussion and a quiz. The programme then expands beyond our Solar System to explore exoplanets—planets orbiting other stars. Current space missions and recent discoveries are presented. In a practical creative task, participants design and build their own exoplanetary system.

Duration: 45–60 minutes. Group size: Up to 30 participants.
