This Aussie Town Might Be a Portal to Space (Hear Me Out)

I was meant to be installing an observatory dome at Perth Observatory… but somewhere along the way, I stumbled into Southern Cross, Western Australia — a tiny outback town where every street is named after a star.

Like, actual stars. You’ve got Sirius Street, Betelgeuse Boulevard, Vega Terrace… I thought I was in a galaxy brain fever dream. 😅

Come with me as I explore this unexpectedly cosmic place, get weirdly emotional about signage, and wonder how no one told me this place existed sooner.

If you’re into astronomy, quirky travel discoveries, or just want to hear me lose my mind over road names, this one’s for you.
