Patrick Moore 100 was created by Fermidox

Today would have been Patrick Moore's 100th birthday. I went to one of his lectures back in the 20th century, and it was as compelling and colourful as one would expect. And answered a question of mine with as much sincerity and clarity as if I had been a published professional in the field  . A pure natural on the stage or behind the mic. Even if prone to a little exaggeration now and then... Fond memories.

Clear skies,
Finbarr.

Thank you, Finbarr, for this wonderful headline. 
We never forget the great man. 
I managed to get his autograph in the 1990's and shook his hand. 

Best regards from Aubrey.

Unfortunately, I never got to meet the great man, but I continue to watch the episodes of 'Sky at Night' - those that he presented. I understand they were usually filmed in one take...amazing stuff!

Thanks Finbarr for the post.

Clear skies to all,

Darren.
