Hi all,
I moved to Darwin last October and thought it was time to see what Australian skies have to offer.
Currently just a casual viewer with a Skywatcher Heritage 90 for easy viewing and a TAL 2 for more serious nights. Tempted to upgrade to something larger in the near future.
All the best,
Dan

Hi Dan, welcome.
I'm also a Brit living in Darwin. I finally realized the Milky Way wasn't just a chocolate bar!

Gday Dan,
There's a few of us around Darwin. We did make noises a while ago about having a get together, but it didn't come off.
If others are interested I'd like to have another try.
Cheers Phil

Dan welcome mate .
I lived in Palmerston for 8 years and found the 2 seasons (wet and dry ) to be a pain and a God send , the dry is awesome , months of great skies but the wet ,,,, :sadeyes: Well , months of clouds and monsoons and you guys are heading into the buildup . Great for storm chasing bad for astronomy.
Enjoy your time there as even though it is hot and humid it's a beautiful place.
Brian.
