The Queensland town of Winton has been certified as an International Dark Sky Community.
The town has committed to managing its light pollution and installed warm bulbs in its streetlights.
Winton Shire Council and tourism operators believe the certification will attract stargazers wanting to experience the natural night sky.
I’ve been to the US once and had the chance to road trip through Utah and Nevada, where pretty much no big cities exist or are far apart. Can confirm that I’ve never seen anything like that fantastic night sky in Europe.
