Sir Patrick Moore was a legendary British astronomer, writer, broadcaster and presenter. He is credited as having done more than any other to raise the profile of astronomy with the British public. He was a former president of the British Astronomical Association and the co-founder and former president of the Society for Popular Astronomy. He wrote over 70 books on astronomy, all of which he typed on his 1908 Woodstock typewriter. He presented all but one episode of The Sky at Night since it began in April 1957.
