We are thrilled to welcome Professor Roger Davies to Quince Honey Farm. His talk will explore how the galaxies, collections of hundreds of billions of stars, were formed and what shaped them into the giant spiral galaxies and the red elliptical galaxies we see today.
This event takes place as part of the Exmoor Dark Skies Festival 2025.
