#SFgays I have a specific request for you all.

Wily has been spotted near the #Castro and #SOMA a couple times during her escapades.

If you see her while you’re out tonight please text me: 857-234-0177. Any hour.

Don’t approach.

Points of the Compass

A while ago I posted about the countries that I’ve visited over the years. The result is summarized in this map:

You can see that I haven’t seen that much of the world. In fact the map exaggerates what I have seen, because the only place I have visited in Canada was Toronto (and some places to the West of that); I have visited the USA too, but not Alaska.  Likewise the only bit of Australia I’ve visited is Sydney and environs.

Anyway, I saw a thread on BlueSky yesterday which was asking people what was the furthest they have visited North, South, East, and West. Here are my answers:

  • North. Tromsø (Norway), Latitude 69° 39′ N;
  • South. Cape Town (South Africa), Latitude 33° 55′ S;
  • East. Sydney (Australia). Longitude,  151° 12′ E;
  • West. San Francisco (USA). Longitude, 122° 27′ W.

I was initially tempted to put Nagoya (Japan) as my furthest East, but at a mere 136° 55′ it’s nowhere near as far East as Sydney. I wasn’t sure which of Sydney or Cape Town is furthest South either, but Sydney is just a little further North (33° 52′). I went to Tromsø years ago for an Aurora watch, which was great fun. Other than that my furthest North is Reykjavik (Iceland). Many of my observational astronomy colleagues will have been to Hawaii, which easily beats me in the westerly direction. Others have been to Antarctica, which beats me down under.

So my span is about 270° E-W (maximum of 360°) and about 103° N-S (maximum of 180°). Not that impressive really.

Anyway, should you be so inclined, feel free to add your own extremities via the comments box!
