A fantastic picture from the long running BBC TV Astronomy show; The Sky at Night (1957 to present). Here is presenter Sir Patrick Moore with comedian Michael Bentine wearing spacesuits to discuss the trials of manned space flight. While being something of a British institution due to longevity and familiarity, rather than actual viewing figures per show, The Sky at Night remains something of a dry presentation of a serious scientific subject. What this image suggests is that perhaps not every episode has always been such.
Happy Christmas for yesterday

Heres one I had to post just for the weirdness of it,I guess this is what you call life imitating art.I notice our friend is using the good old russian Gsh-6A helmet,probably acquired from ebay.Best of luck to him hes a braver man than I

A man with a plan. Impressive
DeleteI`ve just had a look at one of your old adverts,the Lister Fabric advert (1960),and I think that the suit in that is the same one that the guy on the right in this pic is wearing apart from the zipper being on the other side but its quite possible one of the photos has been flipped
ReplyDeletehttp://sayhellospaceman.blogspot.com/2011/08/lister-fabric-advert-1960.html
That looks about spot on. Eagle-eyed as ever. Now we'll just have to track down where both of them had it from.
