Hi also.....new to this forum - although not new to astronomy, and have "looked in" on CN on and off over the last couple of years. I think I got my avatar etc setup correctly.....this post may tell....! "Kokatha man" as in the Kokatha group of Australian Aboriginal people.....one of the Western Desert groups here in Australia. (Kokatha as in "cooker" - the electric/gas stove you "cook" your meals on - and "tar" as in tarpit) My great grandmother was born into a tribal society before any white men had stepped upon her country.....I was born and raised in Adelaide, South Australia, but carry our tribal group-name (Milika) with pride, and have been an active member of our community here in Adelaide over many years..... But I'm thoroughly modern when it comes to AA, although at the moment I am working on a project (hopefully) to educate people about the importance and relative sophistication of various Aboriginal groups when it came to traditional knowledge thereof. Planetary and widefield DSO imaging as well as land/nightscapes ring my bell..... Couldn't see anywhere else to post (not being a beginner!) and thought there was some relevance to "international" in my post....!
