@pimoore That’s for sure! It’s good a small self-contained island can do that. Means they can open up again — they desperately need to income.

@Miraz I want to see Southern Hemisphere stars some day, it might be a good spot for that?

@tkoola I’ve always loved looking at the night sky and know a few constellations etc. In Niue I was stumped and couldn’t find the constellations I knew because there were so many stars. They’re a tiny island a very long way from anywhere else so light pollution pretty much doesn’t exist.
