New to SingAstro

Post by RommelAtienza »

Hi Everyone

New to the club. Inspired by Astronomy photography whilst visiting the American Southwest last month.

I've never seen so many shooting stars in my life until I spent 6 weeks of Roadtrip, most of the time in the desert.

Looking to find if that exist around here in Asia.

cheers, Rommel

Hi Rommel. Welcome to Singastro! Hope you enjoy your stay here. What does the "that" in your "that exist" refers to? Are you posted to Singapore now?

Welcome to Singastro! You share the same name as another famous historical figure well-known for his exploits in the Desert too :)

Gary, I think he meant seeing many shooting stars in Singapore. Unfortunately, Singapore is a rich "nebula" nursery. Very few clears nights per year...sigh.... [smilie=crying3.gif]
