3D models of Solar System Minor Bodies

Post by Gfamily »

As chair of our local Astro Society, I've been sent details of a day being organised at Liverpool University to mark the UN International Day of the Asteroid on 30th June.

One of the resources is for posters, displays and 3D printables of some minor bodies and related things - mostly asteroids, but also a comet (67P) and the Barringer Crater.
If anyone has access to a 3D printer, this might be of interest

If anyone is interested in going to the Astronomy Day, there are morning and afternoon sessions (with mostly the same things repeated), and tickets can be booked (for free) through Eventbrite.

I have no role in organising the day, and am not even sure whether we'll be there.
My avatar was a scientific result that was later found to be 'mistaken' - I rarely claim to be 100% correct
ETA 5/8/20: I've been advised that the result was correct, it was the initial interpretation that needed to be withdrawn
Meta? I'd say so!
