WOOTINI! is a new science fiction orientated zine from graphic designer Arron Worsley. The first issue features full colour articles on potentially-habitable planets for Humans, Germany’s planned invasion of Great Britain during the Second World War, and a fold-out guide to the opening two-part miniseries of Battlestar Galactica.

Reading Outing #2 - Astronomy Now

This wasn’t a proper reading outing, more that I had too many errands in town and had to stop for lunch. Luckily I had the latest issue of Astronomy Now in my bag.

I’ve been a space nerd since I was very small and even though I can keep up with all the space news online it’s nice to sit down and read some proper articles. This issue had some good stuff on the Moon and nice article about indoor astronomy - I didn’t know hanging out the window with my telescope was so frowned upon! I wish the magazine was more fun but I like it more than the others I’ve read.
