Pop up space centre in Wairarapa

Wairarapa is a great place to look at the stars and a pop up space centre in Carterton is helping people learn about the night sky, dark skies, astrobiology and space sciences. As the region fights to be accredited as a Dark Sky Reserve and become the largest dark sky reserve in the world, the Space Centre is doing its bit to promote astro tourism. Self confessed space geek and astrobiologist Hari Mogosanu and her partner Sam Leske set up the centre - Hari joins Anna to tell her more about it.
