Absolutely love how a vast chunk of the UK is outside and looking up. Spectacular night sky aurora covering the skies. The excitement and gaps from people just walking their dogs or running out and waking the kids to see is fabulous.

A great person and tremendous contributor to @officialjodcast.
We have sad news that Professor Ian Morison died over the weekend. Ian came to Jodrell Bank in the 1960s and worked on a wide range of projects here. He was also a great supporter of astronomy in the wider community. We will miss him greatly.
