📸✨ One week from tonight!
Ready to level up your astro game? Join us for an Advanced Astrophotography Tutorial at the Westport Observatory. We’re diving deep—gear, capture, processing, and the tricks that turn “nice” into wow. If you already shoot the sky and want better results, this is for you.

We Installed a GIANT Space Dome on a Mountain!

We drove from Melbourne to Toowoomba… via Coonabarabran (because apparently we can’t help turning a dome install into a full-blown road trip).

Stopped in Coonabarabran for a site visit on a future project — then headed to Mt Kent Observatory to install a brand new 4m Scopedome.

There were telescopes, late nights, too many servo pies, and one absolutely massive dome. Just another casual week in astro-land. 🔭🛻🌌

Last one that really needs a mention for #TuneTuesday‘s theme #SciFiSongs is the band Public Service Broadcasting, not metal, but pure prog, utilising real sounds from archived recordings to tell story, this album documents the #SpaceRace including an homage to the fatal incident of #Apollo1. It is a great listen for #spaceNerds and #progNerds alike.

Just realized that the #SpaceX #Starship 🚀 has now a tentative launch time: Monday Apr 17th, at 2pm MESZ.

Also, there is already a YT stream scheduled to start 45min before: https://www.youtube.com/live/L5QXreqOrTA

I guess, my lunch break on Monday will shift a bit 😅

Not sure yet if I will follow SpaceX's stream or one of the #SpaceNerds ones, eg. #EverydayAstronaut or #EllieInSpace

Finally got my copy of Andy Saunders epic look at NASA's greatest adventure, Apollo Remastered. I have seen some of these photos which Andy shared on social media as he worked on them, but the final prints are simply breathtaking. This is the film shot by the astronauts and digitally remastered in superb detail. Find out more at
