Not that I don't support a petition, but I find it a bit odd that given the circumstances the petition has these conditions against it:
1) Stuart Gary is maintained as the program producer and presenter.
2) The program format remains unchanged.
Why do I find that odd? Well if we're wanting something like this back isn't it worth making it easy as possible for the ABC to return the show? Ie, least conditions. I like Stuart Gary, but what if half the reason it got axed was ABC not getting along with Stuart Gary? And who's to say someone else wouldn't do an equal job? And I liked the format, but who's to say there's not a better format which is easier to be implemented but still gets 30+mins dedicated to astronomy/science?
