In our March 2013 issue, Senior Editor Richard Talcott and I each described the trips to Australia on which we served as astronomers for tour groups. Having only two pages each, we could only begin to give you a sense of how wonderful the country was. So, here are 15 more images (including some of the eclipse itself) that may make you decide to visit the land Down Under — or travel to see a total solar eclipse — someday.

Astronomy magazine subscribers can view the images for free. Just make sure you're registered with the website.
