At times like this, I wish I lived in the USA.

Are you not on occasion able to see the Aurora Australis where you are, NZer? I would think that you have very dark skies, but I suppose it wouldn’t matter much if you resided in a big city.
On edit: Had a look at the lights of the world map. For a small country, it appears that New Zealand is pretty well lit up. The interiors of Australia and Africa look as if they would be an astronomers dream come true. Also didn’t realize that New Zealand is considerably farther from Australia than I had thought (4,163 kilometers, or air travel distance of 2,587 miles).
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

I live too far North to see the lights, but you're right about seeing them in some parts of the South Island.
In fact there are many dark places in NZ but I'm not close to any of them. Wish I was.

Thanks for the tip. It sounds like the world may be ending. I guess that would make sense because after all, it is 2020, isn't it?

No aurora after all.
Unfortunately, the forecast for the Aurora has been updated and conditions no longer look favorable for viewing tonight.
