Anakie Observatory: Turning an Empty Dome Into a Stargazing Beast

We rolled into Anakie with one mission: bring an empty dome to life.

In one chaotic day, we installed the telescope, tested it, made sure the dome’s roof actually opens (crucial), and even dug a hole to relocate the cloud sensor like true astro gremlins.

Now this beast is ready to stare deep into space and silently judge humanity. 🔭🕳️🌌

Stargazing in the Bush Because Life Was Too Loud

Life got loud. Like… too loud. So I packed up a telescope, drove into the bush, and spent a night under the stars — no emails, no noise, no phone signal (accidentally).

It wasn’t about the perfect shot or the clearest sky. I just needed to sit in the dark and remember I’m a tiny speck in a massive universe… and somehow that made everything feel okay.

One night. Just me, the cosmos, and a very judgmental kookaburra. 🌌🛸🌿
