The next Antares event that crosses Australian soil is on the 17th February 2009 (AM 18th). Oz East Coasters and Aucklanders might see the D in daylight but Sand Gropers will see the event just before dawn.

The spot to be is somewhere on a line from Kalgoorlie-Mt Magnet to observe the southern limb graze. I know of at least two observers travelling from Sydney and Canberra and also two travelling from the USA.

HooRoo.
