- MIR visible from U.K. (and Ireland) until Saturday Jan. 16 (inclusive)
-
- If you want the time to see the Russian space station Mir (2 men on board
- at present) then call 0891-88-1950 from UK (1550-111-442 from Republic
- of Ireland). The time is given at the very start of this brand new
- astronomy and space hotline so it will only cost a few pence to call it.
- The full message (3 to 5 minutes) costs 48p/min peak, 26p/minall other
- times and tells you what to see in the sky over the British Isles every
- week. It is fully updated on Sunday evenings for the week ahead but will
- be specially updated mid-week if news warrants (new comet/nova/aurora...)
-
- Please tell your friends/colleagues, especially if you are a member of
- an astronomical club anywhere in UK/Ireland. Please email me if you see
- Mir as a result and let me know what you think of the hotline.

- P.S. Deirdre Lillis emailed me but I was can't reply. Please email again.
