I've not witnessed the sighting of a UFO (alien craft) but I've most certainly met a few people that I were sure could have been aliens But on a serious note I'm so sceptical of anything until I see it with my own eyes, even then I question it and systematically start to tear it apart until I get a logical explanation. And unless warp technology exists, I can't imagine any life form willing to take on travel of such great distances.

Orion Exploration Flight Test-1 scheduled for 4th December

This is very exciting, to think that this mission sparks (pun intended) a future of missions that will eventually take a manned crew to an asteroid and eventually Mars. The only down fall is UK TV suppliers not broadcasting the event, this leaves me feeling quite deflated. Fingers crossed the mission is a success -
I've chosen some great stargazing locations whilst driving, and always find myself resisting the urge to gaze and drive, on many occasions I've stopped the car in the middle of nowhere and 3 hrs later turned up to where I was heading, Whilst on the subject, I do wonder if pilots gaze and fly?

I think I was really lucky, as the only reason I saw it was due to taking the dog out, so thank you doggy! At first I thought it was the Police helicopter shining it's light at me lol

Did anyone else see the car sized meteor tonight, in the north east sky, heading north to south at around 21:24? It's the best one I've ever seen, it even broke up in to smaller rocks and slowly extinguished.

A void in the astronomy community has been created today, a void that will never be filled, we all owe so much to the immortal legacy that is Patrick Moore.

My first Wow! was seeing a NEO through my scope purely by accident, after that it's got to be Saturn's rings. But TBH I say Wow! every clear night lol

Don't freak out when a pigeon flies out of the tree next to you while engrossed in Saturn's rings.

Thanks man, very handy!

It was only a matter of time.

39 It's really interesting that the majority vote falls in the 38-47 years Could it signify some kind of mid life crisis
