I love this time of year in the Highlands, it never gets completely dark. Our lighter evenings are such a blessing, and I really look forward to them … just sitting outside in the absolute quiet and watching the sky, is so peaceful …
It’s just gone midnight, here’s a quick peek of my view tonight … so pretty. 😌🌌

The Moon and Jupiter, (the tiny spot of light on the right of the frame about 4 degrees from the top of the moon) last night they were relatively close. In reality there is approximately 365million miles between the two objects. . . . . . #moon #jupiter #astronomy #darksky #nightsky #planet #skyatnight #nikond850 #500mm @nikoneurope #photoofthenight #instapic (at Walpole Bay Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjfB8yXIbBH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

RT captures three great stars in conjunction for a time-warping Sky at Night special…
To many Queen fans, Brian May is a god. Today, he merely looks like one. We're at Teddington Studios, and if we were to tell you that Brian May in a jumpsuit waving a light sabre is one of the less weird sights on offer, you'd get some sense of the interplanetary lunacy going on. But now, prepare to be enlightened...
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Sky at Night, presenter Patrick Moore — who else? — has come up with the idea of a "live link" to the very first show he broadcast. Time travel being beyond even the modern multi-media BBC, Jon Culshaw has been drafted in to play the young Moore. So, in front of a retro planisphere, and with a copy of Radio Times dated 21 April 1957 on the table, sits a monocled Culshaw. Moore (the real one) is asking him to describe “with the foresight of hindsight” how the universe appears in 1957. In summary: present-day Patrick conducts a conversation about astronomy with himself as if it was the most natural thing imaginable.
Yet it’s nothing compared to what’s next. Also in the studio is a mock-up Mars-base in 2057. For the second half of the programme, Moore beams himself into the future. And who should he find on Mars to ask about the next 50 years' progress in astronomy but a 109-year-old Brian May? Nobody knows whether extraterrestrial life exists, or what it could look like, but if the Martians were to bump into a superannuated May on their home turf, it’s hard to imagine who would be more surprised.
So what brings Moore, Culshaw and May together on a cold Saturday morning for what, it should be made clear, is a serious look at the history and future of astronomical discovery? It's a shared love of astronomy, born out of childhood obsessions with The Sky at Night.
"I used to beg my parents to let me stay up and watch it," says May. "Luckily, they indulged me. I was absolutely captivated from the moment those strains of Pelléas et Mélisande struck up." He wrote to Moore to ask him what the music was, and finally got to meet his idol as a graduate student. "I was at Imperial College London doing my PhD in zodiacal light, but I was just a research student and Patrick was a very important man, so there wasn't much in the way of conversation." Years later they would meet again, and since then May has appeared on The Sky at Night several times.
As for Culshaw: "I'm completely fascinated by astronomy. I suppose it's the way that the other planets are so out of reach — and you can only imagine what they're like. Patrick Moore is the reason why I became interested in astronomy, and also the reason why I became an impersonator. During a day off school, aged seven, I saw a repeat of The Sky at Night on BBC2. And," he continues, moving seamlessly into a skittish, pitchperfect Patrick Moore, "there was this fellow… speaking very quickly indeed, talking about space and the universe... I just instantly copied him. I showed my Mum and Dad and friends and they'd laugh at it. That was really the start." Benji Wilson

We’ve just arrived home after two long days away. Lots of driving and plenty of hustle and bustle … I’m so tired and so glad to be back. Now just sitting with a cup of coffee, and taking a moment to appreciate the beautiful, peaceful sunset that greeted us.

#REPOST @och_aye_the_view with @get__repost__app I definitely still feel pretty unwell!! However the dog still needs out a walk. All I had to do was cross the road, set up your tripod and take a few pictures just like this one. So I didn't need to put in too much physical effort fortunately. The dog wandered around under the stars doing what dogs do and I stood there forgetting to feel sorry for myself given how beautiful the star show was!! #teamgoogle #teampixel #pixel6 #googlepixel6 #pixelcam #photooftheday #photo #photoofday #photos #photographers #photograph #photographylovers #photographer #photography #astro #astrophotography #astrology #astra #nightphotography #nightskyphotography #night #nightsky #star #stars #starphotography #sky #skyphotography #skyatnight #beautifulsky #beautiful https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci6R_NiO1tj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So this morning I got up at silly o’clock to bark at the moon. It was very low on the horizon, but looked great, especially with the low cloud silhouette and ‘blood’ effect. #moon #lunar #moonphoto #fullmoon #astronomy #bloodmoon #superbloodmoon #IgersLeeds #fullmoonphoto #leedsphoto #skyatnight #moonpic #lunarpic #lunarphoto — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/yCZWbTE
