How do planets form? Is there life elsewhere in the Universe? In the first of a new series of astronomy day schools, we will explore the planets and other rocky bodies of our solar system, catch up on the rapidly advancing hunt for planets around other stars, and discuss the origins of life and the prospects for finding it in the solar system and beyond. No previous astronomy experience is needed, and each astronomy day is self-contained so you are welcome to attend one or more.
