Exploring Our Solar System - with Stuart Eves
Stuart Eves takes us on a tour of the solar system, covering the evolution of the stars and planets and describing some of the mysteries that we have yet to solve.

Since the start of the space age in 1957, our understanding of the solar system has increased enormously thanks to both space-based telescopes and spacecraft that have been sent to visit the planets. Although these missions have answered many questions, they have also collected a great deal of information that fundamentally challenges our understanding of the formation and evolution of the solar system. Stuart Eves will explain the mysteries of our local neighbourhood that we have yet to unravel.
Stuart Eves is a satellite-system engineer. He has recently joined Vaeros Ltd. after spending 14 years with Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL) and 16 years with the UK Ministry of Defence. During his time with the MoD, Stuart initiated the TopSat satellite programme, which established a new world record for ‘resolution per mass of satellite’, and for a time formed part of the space gallery at the Science Museum. He has recently published ‘Space Traffic Control’, a book which describes the measures needed to maintain the space environment and protect satellites from both natural hazards and man-made threats such as space debris.
Stuart has an MSc in Astrophysics, a PhD in constellation design, and has been a fellow of both the Royal Astronomical Society and the British Interplanetary Society for more than 25 years. He takes an active interest in all things space, and is thus best described as an ‘astro-nut’!
This talk was filmed in the Ri on 15 October 2018.
