Crescent Moon and Venus at The Dish
Venus and the Crescent Moon captured at "The Dish" at Parkes, NSW during the CWAS Astrofest in July 2010. Taken with a Canon 5D Mark II. The Parkes Observatory is a 64-metre Telescope used for Radio Astronomy. It is located about 20 kilometres North of Parkes, approximately 380km West of Sydney. It was one of several radio antennas used to receive live, televised images of the Apollo 11 moon landing on July 20, 1969.

Download the IceInSpace Compendium 2009!
Posted: Mon, 21st Jun 10 by Mike Salway
Hi all
Chris (Omaroo) and I have started discussing the IceInSpace Compendium 2010, but before we got too far into the discussions, we felt it would be great to release the 2009 Compendium as a PDF - available to freely download and view.
The downloadable PDF is security protected - meaning it can be viewed, but is not able to be printed.
We wanted to share the 2009 Compendium with those that may not have been able to buy it at the time, or maybe you're one of the hundreds of new members that have registered since the Compendium was originally done.
This is our way of giving something extra back to the community and our hope is that by viewing the 2009 Compendium, it will get everyone inspired and motivated for the IceInSpace Compendium 2010!
You can download the zipped 12meg PDF here:
IceInSpace e-Compendium 2009
If the PDF version inspires you and you want to purchase a hard-copy, the 2009 books are still available for purchase for the discounted price of AU$45 posted within Australia, or AU$55 posted to international addresses.
Buy the IceInSpace Compendium 2009 hard copy.
More information on the IceInSpace Compendium 2010 will come shortly!
Cheers and thanks.
