Hi! Welcome to my site. I’m an astronomer, science journalist, author and presenter.

I’ve been fascinated by the night sky, and the extraordinary phenomena found across the Universe, ever since my first childhood glimpses of the Milky Way starfields.

Today my work focuses on bringing to life the science of these astronomical wonders, including through books and magazine articles as well as live shows.

[If you’re interested, you can find out more about me here.]
