Fun Astro Fact! 🌙
The moon isn't just a night owl — you can spot it during the day too!
But only when it's not a new moon phase. 🌞✨

Did you know that Carrickalinga has just been announced as Australia’s first International Dark Sky Community?
Although once a hidden gem, the Fleurieu Peninsula's night skys, are one remarkable location for star gazing, with next to no light pollution, and only 60 minutes from Adelaide's CBD, our tours are once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Our guests can enjoy multicultural night sky tours, blending traditional local Aboriginal storytelling and modern astronomy. With Fraser's remarkable knowledge and Lorraine's bubbly hospitality, it really is a night that will leave an impression on you for decades to come.

Step into the moonlight and witness the breathtaking beauty of a full moon like never before! 🌕✨
"Lorraine & Fraser were amazing hosts. They were at the designated meeting spot when we arrived & introduced themselves in a friendly manner & welcomed us to the Twilight Tour. As we drove to the evening viewing area, they shared their knowledge & history of the local area. Upon arrival, we were spoilt with hot soup, delicious muffins, tea & coffee, plus some other yummy delights, all local produce. We did a short walk to watch the sunset over the gulf, what a show!! Then we used a night vision camera to look for nocturnal animals, but on a cold night, I think the animals didn't want to leave their warm homes! But this didn't distract from an enjoyable experience. Next, the highlight of the evening for me, viewing the full moon through Fraser's telescope. He has a special attachment so that we were able to photograph the moon with our phone cameras through the telescope. He was very patient with each of us as we had our turn. Then a short presentation on constellations and other celestial observations.
Overall a very enjoyable evening, thoroughly recommended!"
Join Lorraine & Fraser on this same magical full moon tour, where you'll experience the wonders of the night sky in all its glory, just like Jill did.

AURORA ALERT for tonight (Jul 30-31).
'Space weather' forecasters are predicting enhanced auroral activity tonight. Not forecast to be as bright as the great auroras last May (see photo). But find somewhere with a dark southern horizon and you may be able to see it. Or at least photograph it, using your phone camera's Night Sight / Night Setting.
Note: DISABLE your camera's flash otherwise your photo won't show any aurora!!
If you get any great photos share them with us please.
