For any of our readers who may be wondering what has happened to the magazine, read on.

Late last year, Lyle became quite ill - to the point he was admitted to hospital for some time. He is now back at work slowly building up strength and increasing the number of hours he can spend in the office.

The magazine is certainly NOT dead, just rather delayed, unfortunately.

The next issue is underway as I write this. When the next issue is finished, S&S will be moving to new and bigger premises (a BIG task) and they will eventually appoint a full time Editor with a view to him/her working full time on the magazine.

There will be a small delay when the move takes place but we are working behind the scenes to minimise the delay. After that, the magazine will be back on track on a more regular basis.

The management apologies to all its customers & subscribers for any inconvenience Lyle's illness has caused.

On behalf of Sky and Space Magazine"


I suggest that you email the editor and ask for an update.
Gave up on it years ago. Too unreliable and not enough high quality content.

I wouldn't want to be one the paying advertisers of that magazine, I'd be pretty cranky.
Things like this can kill a magazine I think , as advertisers who abandon them would be hard to win back.
