In our exclusive cover interview back in issue 269, Brian May told us:
“I´m writing an astronomy book with Patrick Moore, which is great fun, and I´m also looking very seriously at my old astronomy PhD project that I never finished. It´s unfinished business for me and I´m not the sort of person who can leave things alone!”

Well, not only has he been spending time in The Canaries, visiting The Great Telescope array in pursuit of the latter project, we also hear that the former is getting close to fruition too. The book´s entitled ‘Bang! The Complete History Of The Universe´ and has been written with Chris Lintott and the esteemed Patrick Moore.

It looks likely to be a weighty tome to say the least and, you can glean more about it by clicking the link below.
