Thanks everyone.

No point wasting an opportunity on a cloudless night at 37,000ft!

It was my first overseas trip and first time in the Northern hemisphere and I was hoping to see some northern stars on the way up. I was on the wrong side of the aircraft, but seeing Scorpius so low was cool.
It was also great to watch the Southern Cross stay above the horizon as we chased it across the Indian Ocean and then over the Bight back up to Brisbane.

Yes, a tragic I am
