They are Red and they are light

Do they come in any other colour ?

[ballaratdragons (Ken)]

Yes Chris, almost any colour you want! And they are ALL light. Each one weighs under 0.5 grams

Great, Im thinking of buying 20 or so assorted to hang on my EQ6 for a Christmas tree next year. Should be able to take the weight.

Any special offers for a 12 or 24 month subscription??? Beard trimmers, astronomer socks and sandals ..... endless possibilities.

[ballaratdragons (Ken)]

No Graeme, no advertisers or the mag have offered any special offers. Only one from a University for enrolments into the Astronomy course. They are offering a FREE 'Pocket Protector' with every enrolment they recieve before Feb 06.

But they offer student discount on Sandals, knee-socks (white only), Red flip-up sunglasses attachment for glasses, and checkered cotton shirts.

[hogly52 (Graeme)]

I hope the red flip-up sunglasses for attachment to glasses have got the side wings? After all, you wouldn't want white light bursting into your eyes from the sides!

Issue number 2 has finally been released

You can blame Steve (Janoskiss) for re-sparking this thread

It has taken a while for this 2nd issue to be published, but we have been busy running around getting the hard facts and double checking before we print!

So you can be assured of the accuracy of our reporting

[janoskiss (Steve H)]

Wow! over 1+1/2 years wait for an issue. That must be some sort of record!!

Love it! LMAO!! Good to hear you're so thorough with your fact checking. Sun out of petrol!! Oh no!! What are we gonna do??!

Ah, and that humunculus (however you spell it) is reducing me to tears. Brilliant!

[Phil]

that way cool.
well done

LIKE GREASED LIGHTNING!

[Shawn]

If I sibscribe or say two years, will I get an issue...? ...SLMAO

[radu5er]

Geez Ken...I had my credit card in my hand...

[thunderchildobs]

Issue 2: What no coverage of the the Mars closest approach to earth in 60,000 years which happened this week. I saw big red Mars on Tuesday night and it was the size the of the full moon!!

[Shawn]

Still holding mine with keen anticipation...

[Shawn]

Its expired but why not give it a try...?

[Glenhuon (Bill)]

I have just read the first issue and was able to explain to Kym, my lady, why she cannot see the moon tonight. It has been taken down for refurbishing due to peeling laminate in the 300 Km wide plywood disk and will be back tomorrow, freshly repainted.
