You guys have a disproportionate amount of clear nights during the year compared to the rest of us.... although lately we're not too bad... by lately, I'm saying in the last 2 months... Before that... shhhhht house

Leave home around 4-30 every morning to rail to Brissy for work

This morning was a crisp 6.1 degree C, and looked up, and perfectly clear skies

Jupiter was on the western horizon, and the CRUX and pointers were south of the celestial pole

Mass of stars everywhere

Living in Goldcoast Hinterland, had a hill behind my house, which shields light pollution from remainder of the Goldcoast

Check out Star Stuff, which Southern Astronomy Society is co-hosting at Byron Bay second week-end in July

Happy Viewing

John

Sounds awesome... 

Yes, I'm thinking of taking the trip up for the StarStuff event.
