Having seen this thread we thought it best to provide the following information:
Our main site at www.northerngalactic.com but is generally not open to the public for registration although we do allow some registrations when requested. Our sister site www.southerngalactic.com is mainly for Telescope Hosting enquiries by overseas users.
We have powered concrete sites available for $20 per weekend and bookings are essential due to security constraints.
Aircraft flight paths are generally 10-15 Kms to the north and approx 20 Kms to the south. At 630 M (2000 Ft) elevation, we are situated well above Melbournes light dome and far enough south from the ASV site so as not to be effected by Bendigos light dome.
See attached Light Pollution image.
Hope that helps.
