Really looking forward to this. Tonight at 8 p.m. on BB2's Stargazing Live:
Brian Cox and Dara O Briain are back at Jodrell Bank Observatory, building up to one of biggest astronomical events of the decade — a solar eclipse. They are joined by legendary Apollo astronaut Buzz Aldrin, who tells them why he believes we must look beyond the moon for mankind's next giant leap.

Only found out today that Buzz paid a visit to my local world heritage site, Stonehenge. Looks like he enjoyed himself.
Buzz Aldrin, the second man to set foot on the moon, has sent a "message to the Red Planet" from Stonehenge.
The 85-year-old donned a T-shirt urging travel to Mars as he was snapped striking a Superman pose in front of the pre-historic monument.
Following his Wiltshire visit, he tweeted: "While at Stonehenge I decided to send a message to the cosmos."
