You may remember physicist Brian Cox from such hits as "patiently explaining climate change to a diehard denier" and "taking on the government to protect the BBC."
He's an international treasure, in other words, and Australia's ABC network has given him a brand new space show. As thanks, presumably.

The show will broadcast for three nights from April 4 to 6 from the Siding Spring Observatory in rural New South Wales.

Each show will also be followed by a space-version of Gogglebox-- 30 minutes where Cox and Zemiro will answer questions asked over social media from the audience in a segment called Stargazing Live: Back To Earth.
It's worth tuning in. After all, SpaceX intends to send two as yet unnamed people in a loop around the moon in 2018. It could be you next time (if you've got that kind of cash), so best study up.
