Astronomy / Space The Sky at Night this month

[Jonny Shiloh]

Might have mentioned this before, but the Sky at Night magazine is a good monthly read as well. Currently (May issue, featuring new results from the Juno mission) running a subscription offer www.buysubscriptions.com/SKYP156 with 40% off to UK residents paying by Direct Debit - you pay £37.45 for 12 issues instead of £62.40 in the shops. Offer ends May 17th.

I offer this in the spirit of science obviously, I'm not connected to the mag in any way.
