Can you see the stars?
Join thousands of people world-wide hunting for stars from 25th February to 8th March.
GLOBE at Night is an international event to observe the night sky and learn more about light pollution around the world.
Participants are asked to observe the constellation of Orion and match what they can see to one of eight charts provided on the GLOBE at Night website.
The results are plotted on a world map to see where there still remains a truly dark sky.
In Melbourne, Orion can be found in the northern sky at 9:30pm. Make sure you check out Mars at the same time, which lies just below Orion.
To participate in the event see the GLOBE at Night website.
