Has any one seen the ad for building your own solar system ? Looks good and its approved by patrick moore , if you need further info do a "google"

Its a bit pricey but may be a must have!

By the time you've bought all the bits (assuming you don't miss an issue)you'll either
(a) have lost interest and end up selling it on eBay for a fraction of what you paid
or
(b) be bankrupt
Save your cash and by a telescope or a good pair of binos and see the solar system for real!
