It sure was a great night.. i'm planning to do an observing log of the night but just haven't got around to it yet
Was great to meet Rod too - great to finally find a local with a passion for astronomy like myself. I can see many impromptu local star parties when he finally gets his C11.
And I concur with the idea for the IceInSpace star party.. whether we go to an observatory or just a dark sky where the sydney-ites can all get together and observe, meet up etc.
Btw the observatory is called "Koolang Observatory", I recommend them if you're in the area.. top bunch of people and nice dark skies. Oh and the 20" dob ain't bad either
