Waterstones had it in stock a few days early!!

So I couldn’t resist. Technically out on Thursday but if you wanna know about rockets, pick up my new book!

@downwithgloves Does it always smell like that when you’re there… I may have spotted the common denominator…

[Josh Barker @RevJB]

@downwithgloves Just throw soap at them until they stop!

On the latest episode of the Space Now Podcast, i was asked to make a wild prediction for next years. 'SpaceX might lose their lunar landing contract if they struggle to get Starship working reliably and Blue Origin keep progressing'. What's your wildest Space 2026 prediction?

[Josh Barker @RevJB]

It will appear near Leo in the East then spend around 6 minutes travelling across the sky before setting in the West. As if he is outrunning the Sun to get everything delivered. Its a high pass and around 2 hours before Sunrise so a great chance to spot it, if not a little early.

[Josh Barker @RevJB]

Occasionally the @Space_Station is visible at Christmas. It's a fun opportunity to 'Spot Santa' with your kids and stargaze. This year, the best visible pass is 6:20am (In the UK). If you have early risers, head outside, to watch Santa leave after delivering the presents!
