I don't expect rich rewards for this effort - for me, it's a labour of love. But costs are high, and I receive assistance from others that must be funded. And lack of funding is restricting our progress and making production slow and more challenging than it needs to be. Presented by Robert J Dalby Produced by Astronomy and Nature TV
