A new sticky thread in the Start Parties, Club and Community Events forum has been started dedicated to detailing dark sky and observing sites around cities across Australia, not just the eastern states.
Dark sky and observing sites around towns and cities across Australia
If you know of public and private sites that cater for our astronomical interests, please note them in this thread. As the thread develops, it may be subdivided into the various states for ease of use.
It will be a resource for the IIS community and the wider community, looking for places that are astro-friendly. Private observatories are encouraged to post their places too as these are an under recognized asset to the astro community, and one that can greatly benefit interstate and international visitors. Formal astronomy clubs too are encouraged to post here their viewing properties for the same reasons.
Again, my apology for this hijacking of the thread. But like I mentioned earlier, it has proven to be a catalyst for a long required addition to the resources on offer by IIS,
