I've just received my copy of the 2027 Nautical Almanac, in the "official" US version with bright orange covers. It's offered only as a softcover volume, as it has been for the last few years. It's available from the US Government Bookstore (https://bookstore.gpo.gov/products/nautical-almanac-year-2027). The domestic price is $17.00, and the international price is $23.80.
My question is the following: the GPO website states that "the book is produced in collaboration with His Majesty's Nautical Almanac Office in the UK". I seem to recall that Frank Reed once mentioned in a NavList post that all data for this almanac are generated by the UK Nautical Almanac Office at this time. Am I remembering this correctly?
Best regards, Rafael C.
