Sounds good guys, and yes, amazing how a year has almost flown by! If I had the gift of hindsight I think I would have subscribed to it after all... :huh:

Keep in mind that Uranus has a tilt of 90 degrees then so are the orbits of its moons.
Hi Joanna.Does this mean the planets need to be swaped around (you've now gathered I didn't notice this)

Hi Frank,
There's roughly another 4 issues to finish the model - these are the electric parts to power the model.
Personnally speaking I think the model was worth the money even if only one folder has been sent for the magazines.
It's certainly an eye catching model to the extent that anyone who has come into the house and seen it has had to "play" with it
