I see in the news today that WA's going to get a 3 year trial of daylight saving
How do you people over in NSW, VIC, SA, TAS, ACT handle having it and doing astronomy?
It already isn't dark here in summer until at least 8:30 at night, I'm not looking forward to starting astronomy at 9:30
I remember last summer working out in the garden until 7:45ish on many afternoons, chipping away the hole for my observatory pier in full light. I don't understand why even more daytime after 5pm is desired.
I am probably one of the least disadvantaged in the WA astronomy community because about 2/3 of what I do is automated so I can start it and go to bed, I really pitty the visual observers etc more. But even my stuff, I think I'll need to improve the automation to get the same level of productivity in my photography.
