Transit 2004

Stuart Highway

We decided to travel north from Alice Springs to find a really clear spot to observe the transit. Just north of Alice the Stuart Highway crosses the tropic of Capricorn. This is the marker, with the Moon in the background. The tropic is 23.5° south and is the furtherest south the Sun is ever overhead.
