"Strap on your seatbelts and launch into
Coonabarabran, The Astronomy Capital of Australia. Experience a scaled
model of our Solar System that's 38 million times smaller than outer
space!"
We went for a drive after lunch - through the solar system!
Read here for details.
On our various trips along the Golden Highway, we have often admired Pluto (at Merriwa) and had stopped at some of the other planets on our way out to the Warrumbungles. There were four planets located only a short drive from our campsite, so we set off in search of Earth (!), Venus, Mercury - and called in on Mars later in the afternoon, after spending some time at the Sun!
