#Perth #WA Thanks to the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage (@dplh.wa) for the releasing their draft policy statement on Dark Sky and Astrotourism. This will really help us show off our amazing Southern Sky to Western Australians and Tourists.

You can read the policy statement and provide your own feedback with this link: https://consultation.dplh.wa.gov.au/land-use-planning/dark-sky-and-astrotourism-position-statement/

Here is also the ABC Article on the Policy: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-01-16/wa-housing-developments-may-be-forced-to-adopt-light-policy/13061130

#Perth #WA we had a great Night Sky Tour at the Perth Observatory last night! A little bit of thin cloud around and windy but nothing to stop the show. Thank you to our wonderful volunteers and the customers who make these nights possible.

It was great to see so many families enjoying the outing during the school holidays.

#throwbackthursday: When you talk to our former astronomers about getting messages about meteors, they say while apps like @curtinuniversity's Fireballs in the Sky have revolutionised the way people report meteors, it was fun manually finding out where in the sky the meteor appeared from and where it could've have landed if it had survived.
