I too miss Sir Patrick. But at least he did nominate Professor Chris Lintott as his successor, and the BBC honoured that request. I also feel that the show could be either on twice a month now, or haver an hour long show once a month. There are a lot of things happening these days both with on earth plans for missions and missions already under way, and more BBC air time would help better inform and educate the public.
I hope that once we star to really see progress for the next re-visiting the Moon missions from China, and then onto Mars with either NASA or China and maybe India. That we will start to see more air time given over to cover these via the Sky at Night show or maybe a spin-off show.
I've even been keeping alive a request thread on the star citizen forms to have something named in the game after Sir Patrick Moore. The SC writer Dave Haddock is still looking for something suitable to name after Sir Patrick. As he wrote here: LINK
