BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Aug 1 (Borneo Bulletin/ANN): More than 40 stargazers spent their long weekend enjoying the wonders of the Milky Way during an astro-camping excursion in rural Belait.

The ‘Kembara Angkasa Maal Hijrah’ programme served as an astronomy outreach project to make the hobby more accessible to the Belait community.
