I pass on sad news of the death of John Dobson the American astronomy populariser and inventer of the Dobsonian telescope design. A tribute can be found at the link:http://earthsky.org/space/r-i-p-john-dobson

Sad news indeed. John Dobson held some very interesting views on cosmology but his work on Dobsonian mount telescopes certainly brought better astronomical views within the budget of many more budding astronomers. A very interesting person.
