"We're due what we call a great comet." John Axtell, from Woking Photographic Society and Guildford Astronomical Society, spoke to That's TV about his picture of a very a rare comet. He captured it when it was at its closest to Earth, at around 44 million miles away.

If you missed last week’s broadcast, here’s the repeat.

Brooklands Radio tonight 7.20 will replay the Helen Sharman interview I did years ago. I also chat about the JWST images, change to NASA's plans to recover Martian rocks, plus Shaun the Sheep goes to the Moon "A giant leap for lambkind!" @brooklandsradio @FarnhamAS @GuildfordAS

The podcast from my last ever Stars Over Surrey on Brooklands Radio is now online. Should anyone want to think about taking on the broadcast then by all means contact the station or myself - it's just time, after 5 years, to hang up my hat. @GuildfordAS brooklandsradio.co.uk/podcasts/Stars…

Shame on you BBC! In tonight’s BBC News there was an article about the James Webb Space Telescope’s launch. One of the people interviewed was Tom Kerrs, and the caption listed him as “ Astrologer”! Outrageous! #BBC News

@rb368 Hi, sorry only just spotted this. Please have a look at our website, you’ll find an article on buying a telescope. Hope that helps.

@GuildfordAS Hello. I’m looking to buy a telescope. I’m a novice, but keen to get something I could buy additions too as I get more experienced. Does anyone have any recommendations please? Thank you

There’ll be “added value” content in the podcast, on-line soon.
