RIP: Heather Couper, Astronomer, Broadcaster, Author

[dewline]

I have a book that she and her partner Nigel Henbest co-wrote: The Guide to the Galaxy. Bought it from Perfect Books years and years ago. It was and remains a great read, however much time and new information have dated it. The maps were beautiful works of cartographic art for their time and topic. Sadly, it's no longer in print, but other examples of their work remain available.
