Thanks for the welcome and yes I do know Lesa Moore - we started Uni together and 8 years later we're doing PhD's together albeit in different departments.
You'd know Lesa from star parties? and living up near her?

Hi Sarah.

Yes, I met Lesa at the South Pacific Star Party in March this year, and was surprised to learn she lives just up the road from me! Lesa and her husband Peter are also coming to the IceInSpace AstroCamp at Lostock, at the end of January next year.

Maybe you can come up too?

Got your PM too, thanks.. will respond shortly.

Would love to! but my brother is getting married that weekend. I'll keep an eye on your astrocamps and try to make a later one. Lesa and I will also keep you updated as to the Macquarie Uni Astronomy Open Nights (twice a year around April and October) incase your members are interested in coming along to these.

Only a day to go!

Tomorrow afternoon at 5pm, i'll be disabling the submit button on the quiz entry form. You can still use this form to see what answers you submitted, and on the info/rules page there'll be a new section showing the answers, and the explanation for those answers as there's bound to be a few questions asked

Good luck everyone and get those last minute entries in, just incase your ISP has a heartattack tomorrow afternoon at 4:30pm and you'll have missed your chance!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh Vingy


How sad will it be to watch your disappointment as my manly hand wraps its way around my newly acquired nagler ... at that exact moment you believed your triumph complete!

Still ... winners are grinners and I'll send you a photo of me and the Nag having our first night out together.

Any suggestions for possible first viewings????

All you guys are so selfish...thinking of yourselves 24/7

At least if I win I plan on donating the Nagler to a worthy person...."ME ME ME ME ME ME ME"

Don't forget guys, the winner won't be announced this arvo.. entries close, and you can check your answers.

But that's all
