I groaned when I read "Astronomy" (the USA mag) peice on mis-conceptions /
lack of education. Some of the quotes / questions were cringeworthy.
Not having opened this month's "Astronomy", I'm wondering if you've
just volunteered yourself to re-write part of this article for Steven

Here's a few links from Google (I think I used "astronomical"
"blunder" and "common error" in several searches) to spike your collection.
