New Sky&Space!

It arrived at my doorstep this afternoon!

If you've got a subscription it'll probably arrive today or Monday, and probably at the newsagents during next week.

There's a surprise or 4 in there of interest to forum members.. Will reveal more once more people have it in their hands!

Not got mine yet, but it has further to come.

I'm not going to read this thread until it does - so the surprise is not spoilt.

Tell me please.... Is my comet shot in there! You can private msg me if you like...
I'm not sure when we'll get to see S&S in NZ, if at all going by the nil focus of Astronomy at local news agents.
Cheers

Wow great stuff Mike !
I'm guessing some people are feeling very proud right now, and rightly so

Brace yourself for a flood of "Hi im new here" threads

I've just come back from the shops. Went to two newsagents to check out S&S but they didn't have it. Grabbed a copy of AS&T though.

So thanks for the shots of the mag Iceman and for risking your livelihood with such a blatant violation of copyright. Great stuff! Now if I could only find a copy of it so I could look at the photos in all their glory.

BTW. Who paid for the ad? (in the first shot)

I don't expect the mag will be in the newsagents until mid-next-week.. those with subscriptions usually get it a day or two before the full release.

It'll be out next week for sure though.

That's cool isn't it.
Just look at what you've started Iceman... You'll be famous at SPSP! Who needs $5 when this is the sort of company we keep.
Better upgrade your webserver.
Cheers

I agree, Mike, look what you have produced.
It is neat to be a part of this small, close knit group, all doing their own little bit to help everyone else, and without any of the *****ing that seems to plague other forums.
Long may it continue.
Hats off to you Mike.
