NO! America does not own the Moon nor will they ever do so. There are international treaties such as The Outer Space Treaty (1967) and The Moon Agreement (1979) The Moon Agreement explicitly states that the Moon and its resources are the "common heritage of mankind".

The telescope we used to image the eclipse this evening was a Seestar 30, supplied by First Light Optics. Find out more and buy the telescope here: www.firstlightoptics.com/beginner-tel... . I will be talking about it more at my shows, so do come along nightskyshow.co.uk

I say this in my show and I will say it you you now. Do not look directly at the sun with your naked eyes, telescope or anything like that. Even at maximum eclipse at over 90% Moon coverage, the sun will still damage your eyes. Permanently! NEVER LOOK DIRE`CTLY AT THE SUN! EVE DURING THE ECLIPSE

Eclipse in 2 days. One rule matters more than all the rest: Never look at the Sun. Not once. Not through sunglasses. Even 90% covered, what’s left will damage your eyes. Safe: ISO 12312-2 glasses, or a pinhole projector. #eclipse2026 Find out more at my show www.nightskyshow.co.uk

That streak of light is a piece of a comet. Mostly grit — smaller than a peanut. But it hits the air at 59 km a second, and that’s enough to make it glow white hot 100km above your garden. Something older than our species, ending in a flash above your head. #meteorwatch www.nighskyshow.co.uk

How to watch a meteor shower, complete guide: 1. Lie down. Don’t stand — you’ll last 15 minutes. 2. Wrap up warmer than you think. 3. Look UP. Any direction. It doesn’t matter. 4. Phone away. Screen light kills night vision. 5. Give it an hour. That’s the lot. #meteorwatch www.nightskyshow.co.uk

So I need to borrow your eyes and see what you all think? Which one of these two images which are used in the posters for my new show - The Night Sky Show - A Sky Full of Hope, you you prefer? A. The blue one with meteors over the planet. B. The gold planet and stars. Please let me know.

You don’t have to wait for the 12th. The Perseids are already running. Clear sky this weekend? Go out for an hour after dark. Fewer meteors than peak night — but no crowds, no pressure, and it’s good practice. #meteorwatch Book tickets to see more at The Night Sky Show www.nightskyshow.co.uk

The most common thing people say to me about meteor showers: “I haven’t got a telescope.” Good. Don’t use one. It narrows your view to a keyhole. Your eyes take in half the sky at once. That is exactly the right tool. #meteorwatch This and more at the nightskyshow.co.uk

One week today, something rather special happens. On 12 August the Moon passes in front of the Sun and gives the UK its deepest eclipse since 1999. Then that same Moon leaves the sky completely dark — right as the Perseids peak. Same Moon. Two shows. One day. #meteorwatch www.nightskyshow.co.uk

Keep a look out for the planetary parade in the sky after sunset this weekend. Just after Sunset, look West to see Mercury, Venus and Saturn near the horizon, with Jupiter much higher overhead. No telescope needed. You only need your eyes!
