The next meetings of the BIS ‘Science Fiction Virtual Branch’, the ‘Future Propulsion Virtual Group’, and the ‘Space Law and Space History Virtual Group’ will take place on Thursday 9th October by means of dedicated breakout rooms during the BIS Monthly Online Social that evening.
In addition, expressions of interest are invited about other possible new virtual special interest branches and groups, such as Space Art and Culture, Human Spaceflight, Practical Projects, Interstellar Studies, a Wales/Bristol branch and Lunar Studies. (In particular, there are ongoing discussions on a possible Bristol/Bath branch, if interested please do attend and let us know.)
This is an opportunity to pursue your particular interest – so join us online on the 9th and let us know!
