Patrick Moore has died

The well known astronomer, author and broadcaster Patrick Moore has died today at his home in Selsey. He was 89.

Much loved by many both inside and out of the astronomical fraternity, he will best be remembered for presenting the BBC's Sky at Night program. He will be sadly missed.
