Earth & Sky is a local business situated in the small township of Lake Tekapo , a lovely community in the heart of New Zealand's South Island. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff offer visitors guided daytime tours around Mount John Observatory as well as nighttime stargazing tours at Mount John and Cowan's Observatory.

Located in the Mackenzie District, the region is renowned for the clarity of its sky and freedom from light pollution, which is why the area was declared a gold-level International Dark Sky Reserve in mid-2012. People in their tens of thousands flock here annually to see the southern stars and transient phenomena such as aurorae, meteor showers and the zodiacal light in all their pristine glory. If you wish to capture a permanent record of our night sky, we can help with astrophotography too. (The taking of photographs and video footage on Mount John is permitted for personal use only.

Any other use, including commercial, of such photographs or video footage is prohibited.) LIVE REAL TIME SATELLITE AND SPACE SHUTTLE TRACKING AND PREDICTIONS. Science News & Organizations. Homepage - Large Hadron Collider. Science news and science jobs from New Scientist.
