# David A. Hardy

David A. Hardy (born 10 April 1936) is a British space artist.

## Early life

David Hardy was born 10 April 1936 in Bournville, UK. He studied at the Margaret Street College of Art in Birmingham, and was soon painting for the British Interplanetary Society.

## Career

He started his career as an employee in the Design Office of Cadbury's, where he created packaging and advertising art for the company's confectionery; but was already illustrating books for e.g. Patrick Moore.
His first science fiction art was published in 1970, but he has gone on to illustrate hundreds of covers for books, and for magazines such as The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction and Analog Science Fiction and Science Fact. His work also appears regularly in magazines such as Astronomy, Sky & Telescope, Astronomy Now and Popular Astronomy, for which he also writes articles.
Jon Gustafson and Peter Nicholls write that he is "known as much for his astronomical paintings in the accurate tradition of Chesley Bonestell as for his sf work... Some of his best early work was to illustrate a nonfiction book by Patrick Moore, Suns, Myths, and Men (1954)." Gustafson and Nicholls remark that The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction was "the magazine for which he developed his famous "Space Gumby 'Bhen'," a green alien which lent humour to his vivid astronomical scenes. He was an important artist for Vision of Tomorrow and worked also for Science Fiction Monthly, If and Galaxy."
He is European Vice President of the International Association of Astronomical Artists, and a former Vice President of the Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists.
He has been Artist Guest of Honour at a number of science fiction conventions, including Stucon, Albacon, ArmadaCon, Novacon, the 2007 Eurocon, and Illustrious, the 2011 Eastercon. He was also a guest speaker at the 2012 Microcon at Exeter University.

# Hollywood Heartbeat

Hollywood Heartbeat is a syndicated music video television show that ran in the United States from 1980 to 1981. The show was hosted by former Fleetwood Mac singer-songwriter-guitarist Bob Welch and was produced by Lawrence Smith and Richard Mann. Later episodes were hosted by Mackenzie Phillips. The show's theme was written and recorded by Carmine Appice, who included a reworked version on his eponymous album the following year.
Taking advantage of music videos being produced more commonly by record labels to promote their records, the show was a precursor to MTV, which launched the following year. Beyond the record label-produced music videos, original music videos focusing on the hot acts from the Los Angeles club scene were produced exclusively for the show. Musicians making some of their first televised appearances included Berlin, The Plimsouls, Toni Basil, Shandi, Paul Warren & Explorer, Gary Myrick and the Figures, Surf Punks, 20/20 and The GoGos.
Welch would do the wraparound content, frequently from the back of a convertible driving around the Sunset Strip and similar club areas at night. He would also conduct interviews with celebrities such as Stewart Copeland, Madame Wong, Dave Hlubek, John Densmore and Joan Jett.
# Metrosideros leunigii

Metrosideros leunigii is the oldest described fossil species of the flowering plant genus Metrosideros (Family Myrtaceae), named from fossil flowers and fruits uncovered from the Oligocene (approx. 30 Million years) aged Little Rapid River deposit in Tasmania, Australia, as well as leaves from this deposit and identical leaves from the Eocene aged Hasties deposit, also in Tasmania. These fossils are significant, because they show that Metrosideros once occurred naturally in Australia during the Cenozoic, and has since become extinct.
Prior to the discovery of these fossils, there has been no record of the genus Metrosideros in Australia. The absence of Metrosideros in Australia has been considered something of a mystery to Australian paleobotanists, since Metrosideros is one of the most widely spread flowering plant genera in the Pacific, growing from the sub-Antarctic Auckland Islands of New Zealand to the Bonin Islands near Japan and to Hawaii, owing to the lightweight seeds of at least some species of Metrosideros which can be dispersed easily by wind, and survive long periods of submersion in sea water.
It had been hypothesized that Metrosideros may have evolved in New Zealand, and subsequently dispersed throughout the Pacific from there. However, these fossils may suggest an Australian origin for the genus. Why and when Metrosideros should have become extinct in Australia, yet survived elsewhere in the Pacific is unknown.
The species Metrosideros leunigii was named after Australian cartoonist, Michael Leunig.
