Mind you the Flinders Ranges are something else to view a sky like that out there. Great memories and something to look forward to ...

Indeed, we do have to make the best of what we have..we have to move further and further from our cities and towns to get good dark skies. Canberra where I live has got so big and bright, one needs to drive about an hour now to get out to a genuine dark sky site with Bortle 2 skies. When I first arrived in Canberra in 1984 it was only about a 30min drive to be under black skies

Oh to live deep in the Flinders Ranges ...yeah baby!!
