Hi Matt, thank you for the kind offer but sadly we never made it to Canberra, we just caught the flight back today from Melbourne (the plane has limited free WiFi - we’ve just left Aussie airspace now). The weather in sa and Victoria was cloudy on our route so no stargazing this time. An 18in under dark Aussie skies with Southern Hemisphere stars would have been amazing. I have to say you guys (usually) have it so much better for astronomy than we in he uk! I read your Tak star party thread - I mean taks under dark southern skies... does it get any sweeter than that?!
