The #Aurora is a beautiful thing to watch especially over the UK which is incredibly rare.
There is no need for alarm though, it won't hurt us.

As well as content taking thousands of hours and costs involvedto produce. There's AI plagarising everything and individuals stealing your work.

Some may remember when NASA had an image of mine on their homepage for a while, crediting the person who stole it.

I'm often asked why my show or content isn't online?

Simple! It costs a fortune to produce. Thousands of hours of work by myself and CG artists and many others involved also.

Everyone needs paying and I can't afford to give it away for free.

So! See it live!

I just upgraded my Mac to Tahoe and am now having to do a full rebuild to set it back to Sequoia

Tahoe isn't ready and and has some quite serious issues, including some apps not working with it, or behaving weirdly.

hang on until it comes out of beta and a few versions later.

I think I did a good job of wrapping this. I hope Mrs Astro enjoys unwrapping it in the morning 😀

My Sunderland, Bristol and Shrewsbury shows in 2026 are a knats wotsit away from selling out and Woking is filling quickly also!

If you want to come along to one of these, you had better get a shift on! Don't leave my other shows to the last minute either.
