Just bought my copy, which I’ll likely give to my niece... who am I kidding, I’ll probably learn a lot from it as well! I’ll read it first and then gift it

It’s a toss up now as to whether this book or my first ever telescope will get delivered the fastest! Hopefully the book so I have a bit of an idea of what I’m looking up at.

All the best to Ashton and getting his first telescope! 

I’d love to know which! We pride ourselves on fast postage so hopefully the book will arrive soon

A great choice. I suspect this will be the Christmas he will always remember.

We hope so! This one will be from us, not Santa! We don’t want the big guy getting the credit for this one! 😂

It would, wouldn't it 🙂 

We contacted Aston's parents when Skipper Billy bought him to our attention. His book is now available to buy at FLO. 

The Solar System by Aston Smith

Yes! Thank you so much to FLO for supporting my son with this book

This would make a great story for The sky at Night 🤔

Aston would love that!

Welcome to the forum Lyndsay (and Aston). If I may, I'd like to ask the question that I know everyone here has been dying to know the answer to since they read the first post...

 

Which telescope is Aston saving up for?

 

Hi  

Well Aston believes he is saving up for a better telescope (exact one not decided on) but my husband and I have bought him a Celestron Nexstar 8SE for Christmas

What a remarkable young boy, a treasure, can I order the book in Canada? 

Yes of course! If you visit his website you can order through there. Www.astonsmith.me.uk 

Hi everyone. I’m Astons mum and I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone for your support. We are genuinely blown away by the outpouring from everyone in the astronomy community. Thank you xx
