Magazine publishing dates

[Saturnalia]

I know that the S@N magazine is available around (or after) the 22nd of each month - anyone know when Astronomy Now comes out...?

[Phil Fargaze]

As a general rule, I`ve noticed that Astronomy Now is in the shops on the 3rd Thurs of every month. The Febuary 2010 issue is out on the 21st.

The current (January) issue states the February edition it will be on sale from January 21, with emphasis on Mars as it will be at oppostion at the end of January and the editor recognises that because of the odd publishing scheudule prevalent in the industry, the February issue will be most appropriate to run their Mars feature. Strange, but true!

OK - thanks for that...I've just realised it's in the Editor's comments...!
