After 10 years of #stargazing in #NSW we have introduced a Season Pass for locals.
It is not easy creating a business from scratch. It is gruelling, time-consuming and requires lots of funds and dedication. But it is fun to do. Make contact with us if you are in Broken Hill.
Getting Xi ready
For use in #stargazing in our #darksky #NSW
If you know this telescope is an LX 200, then you'll know where "Xi" comes from and likely know how to operate it
We can train the right person
Please be in touch! #roadtrip #travelexperience #over50s #nomadlife
Some Moon flights do crash, burn or "conclude".
We cut through wordy statements at our sky shows.
Tonight we will salute Peregrine Mission One, now in the Pacific, and highlight the work of @astrobotic and others seeking to conquer that slippery orb.

We will stargaze tonight with a slightly gibbous #moon and #Jupiter nearby. It is an excellent opportunity to discuss what's above, like #Ax3 @SpaceX @Axiom_Space @NASA

What about that signal picked up in Australia? My take: seti.org/signal-proxima-cent…
We often reference this lengthy piece of work at our sky shows ... a wonderful achievement @keckobservatory @GalacticCtrGrp Our winter skies are perfect for sharing the knowledge about the centre of our galaxy.
This just in - check out Andrea Ghez’s Nobel medal! She received her #NobelPrize earlier today. Congrats again to Andrea and @GalacticCtrGrp. Our @keckobservatory ‘ohana is beaming with pride ✨ And mahalo to our friends at @UCLA for sharing these pics! 📸 credit: Annette Buhl
