New Visitors Section
Welcome to the h2g2as members page and to new members who have recently joined the group, it's great to have you with us. This page contains information for the members of the h2g2as as well as for anyone else who would like to join in the societies activities.
If you are new to the h2g2as then may I say a big warm welcome. I originally set up the site as a place that people can use to find out the latest space science news and discuss things with other like-minded people. If you would like to become a part of the h2g2 A/S then just put a message in one of the forums below and I will contact you. Of course by all means dive straight in and discuss anything right away.
