Kevin FPatrick Moore passes away at 89
It's been a sad year for old-school celebrities this year as another one takes his final bow. Patrick Moore made astronomy intersting and fun for the first time ever and lead to me gaining an interest in the subject at an early age. I still have his first 'Atlas of the Universe' book that I saved up for weeks to buy while I was still at school. Who's next I wonder ?
