Jack Horkheimer, the Star Hustler, died on August 20, 2010 at 72.  When I was in college and law school I loved tuning in to his wacky and informative looks at astronomy.  Fare you well Star Hustler in your journey beyond the stars.

That’s a shame. I just started watching him over the last few years, and always liked his show. The enthusiasm he always showed for the subject was genuine and infectious. God rest his soul.

I have always known of him as the “Star Gazer.”

The name was changed in 1997 due to internet searches for the Star Hustler leading people instead to Larry Flynt’s slime mag Hustler.
